Well I dont have any Polysynths yet, I sorta manage by linking up all my mono sources and detuning etc :). Which uses up a lot of gear. The QMF (Sherman Quad Modular Filter, for J.Johnson's info) will be an extra "Sound Screwer". I may well look into selling my MS20 and SQ10 to partly fund this. So my polysynth options at the moment are, QRack or maybe an Andromeda once I make a hearing judgement on it and see the price ;) Oh as for the sound card bit, I dont use a computer for music, I'll usually play in a polyphonic line manually everything is sequenced or triggered by hardware sequencers (multiple Doepfer A155's and SQ10) Andy UK ----- Original Message ----- From: "aristoteles heikkila" <xxx@xxxxxx.xx> To: <xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> Sent: Thursday, February 03, 2000 5:03 PM Subject: [AH] Re: new toys for this year (was FW: korg ms2000) > On Thu, 3 Feb 2000, Andrew Parker wrote: > >> http://www.korg.co.jp/products/update_MS2000.html > >Holy cow im gonna be skint this year :) > >QMF.
