Thank you, John. Okay, so I'm probably going to order one of these
modules, since it looks like you can do lots of fun / weird things to
samples. But I do have a few more questions concerning wavetable mode:

I'm completely new to wavetable synthesis, but from what I read about
it, it looks like you can do really interesting sounds with it.
So first of all, I'm not sure wether I understand the principle: So
you have two banks of 256 pages in this module and each page contains
256 samples of one cycle of a waveform, is that right

If that's right, when I record an incoming audio Signal to a
wavetable, how does it know, how long such a wave is Do I have to
make sure, that the incoming Signal has the right frequency to fit a
Wave into one page etc.

Furthermore, are there any useful complete wavetables available
online, so I can dump them into the A112 Or any software to ease the
process of putting together your own wavetables Because I don't
really see myself, sitting hours in front of a screen, drawing wave
after wave, dumping them into the A112 and the realise, that they
sound bad ;-)

Thank you for any help!
