my A-185-2 has a difference of 2cents ( tonal) between the different
switches.
this seems to be too mutch for me to name it "precision" Adder.
I hoped that i can trim this difference away.
when i think that 1 Volt is divided by 12 to get semitones,
2 cents (of a Semitone) is not much in Volts.
I think this 0,1% matching is then not enough.
The Module is _very_ useful for me.
Matching to 0,01% and paying finally a littlebit more would be the
better Deal at the end,
IMHO.
thanks
