MOTM

You know, I kept debating getting the Nord modular in my "starved for
modular" days (pre 9/99), but now that I've found MOTM and am building a
real, physical one, I'm pretty committed to that. I really like turning
knobs and stringing patchcords all over the place. 

Not that the two are exclusionary because they're different enough to be two
separate beasts, but I only have $$$ to push into one direction or the
other. I'd rather keep pushing for new MOTM modules, even though that
doesn't have the "instant gratification" factor of just going to Sam Ash and
grabbing something else.

You know why I didn't buy a Nord Modular when it came out? I was interested
in the idea, but I was waiting for the "super" version. Instead, years
later, they came out with the "mini" version, so they seem to actually be
going in the opposite direction from what I'm looking for.

Not that I want to steer business away from MOTM for this, but it sounds
like 
you need the Nord Modular.  They even have a Sinewave oscillator bank just 
for doing additive synthesis.

Oh, please do and let us know.

 Hey, I *like* that idea of the spectrum-analyzer-like display on an additive
 module! Turn a knob and one partial's amplitude changes, and so does the
 display. That would be a cool module, and _showy!_

ken,
agreed !!!
