Hi Stuadh!
Yeah, that was what the reporter at SOS also said, although he leaned to
A.sys's side when it came to specs, he seemed to think Doepfer was always
one or two specs below the general A.sys module. Anyhow, it seems reasoneble
that all in all it adds up to about the same, like buying a SAAB or a Volvo
ehrm... swell in different ways but both very drivable... anyway a thing
that struck me, you guys aren't at all bothered bout voiding warrantys on
your modules or.. Or is it all about not having the alien modules in the
rack "officially" Guess they don't break that easily, and most of them
aren't that expensive to buy new but still... warranty is always a good
thing out there in the dark..
