Julian,

I would suggest that the A100 is not just analogue (after all we have
the wavetable/sampler VCO).

I agree that to some analogue purists, digital is a no no. I however
believe that the final sound is more important than how you get there.

That why I mic up Tibetan singing bowls (or just record them) through an
envelope follower and mangle the sound with my modular or using plugin's
and anything else I can get my hands on.

Sound is what I crave.

I also prefer my tools to be as flexible and multi purpose as possible,
lots of VC sockets etc.

Digital seems, in some circles, to be a dirty word.

I get the impression that digital has been looked down upon for
its
inability to properly mimic analogue. But i think this is
missing the
point.

Digital is, IMHO, not so good at cloning analogue, but it can do
very odd
stuff that just cant be done (at least not even remotely easily)
in the
analogue relm.

Is the a100 an 'analogue' machine as a rule Or is it just a
synthesiser,
using the best tool availible for the job If its an 'analogue'
ill shut
up, but if its a synthesizer designed to offer the most
flexibility in
whatevers the best way, then Id be most happy to see a complete
range of
digital modules under voltage controll. The crazier the better!

Julian

ps - the a-2XX range the hundreds are running out anyway ; )
