I take it you're reading this through Yahoo's web interface It's pretty
awful, especially when a group gets busy. I know that your stereo question
got some response, but it was also during the time when Deiter (Mr.
Doepfer) was getting ready for Frankfurt and there was a LOT of list traffic.

If you have a normal email reader (Outlook, Thunderbird, Eudora, etc) you
may want to read the list that way instead. It's a LOT easier to handle.

This one is "interesting" in that I don't have a stock Doepfer cabinet. For
me, I start using mults panels or custom "split" cables that I've made.

This is the question I remember, and I think the list got to the point of
pondering "how stereo do you want to be"

So, truly duophonic with separate VCO(s) and filters for each side, or are
you "happy" with just splitting the signal at the filter and processing LR
channels there

Dunno about these... This would be best answered by Deiter, and I think
he's still in Frankfurt.

Again, I think that part of the issue you've seen is that your messages got
lost in the sea of stuff just before the Musikmesse.

Now seeing what you're looking for, you may wanna try the SynthSite's list,
or Muff's forum. Muff's forum would be good 'cause of the MUCH better
reader interface; SynthSites 'cause of the people there - BUT! The SS list
isn't modular centric, so you'll get people kinda goin' "umm, I just fire
up my Virus and press a key to get stereo...". :)


Hope some of that babble helps...
