thank you joe,but,to tell you the truth...i don't
think i'm doing anything!it's the a100 members that
make this group great!many of you seem to know so much
about analog synthesis and electronics and that's why
this group is alive...in fact ,i should thank all the
a100 members because i,most of the time,learn new
things from this group!
