With my test preset ((L1-L4 * 12th Order Filter) + (L1-L4 * preset 
chorus)) doubled it via Link 1, I got 4 note polyphony. That is, when 
note 5 was depressed, note 1 totally cut out.  With Link 2 added, it 
sounded like I stll had 4 note polyphony.

Your explanation about notes being stolen from links first may indeed 
be what's at work.

Thanks for the clarification.
