Great work ripe! I wish I had a shaltwerk so I could help you out with
beta-testing later. Perhaps I should pick one up now before you release the
potential(and jack up the price) ;) You don't by chance have anyone in your
trashcan RingMod ;)

I also see you have not given up hopes for an upgrade boys(you know who you
are) - keep up the good "fight", but I find it hard to see that it really
will happen. I did try to sell of my regelwerk last summer, needless to say
offers were low. If you feel up to it feel free to guess what the
"top-bidder" offered. I was prepared to let it go real cheap and he didn't
even come close. What is the best hardwaresequencer on the market now by the
way
