hi andreas,
well VA is one thing and real analog is another!i myself have the
nord micromodular and i love it,but if you're willing to give some
money nothing beats a real modular...
about the vco's the a111 is tops as it have linear FM!!!with it you
can do many unusual sounds...i love it!!!also,the a110 sounds
good ,too...(fatter than a111 )
again,i can't compare them to other companies vco's,as i don't have
any...
bakis.
