An extra AR modulation source should be easy to add, especially if you =
don=92t need another VCA but can use the existing one.

However, adding even a single voice would require loads of CPU. Adding 4 =
more voices would be impossible without adding greatly to the price. 4 =
voices can often consume the entire CPU, so there=92s no way to just add =
that kind of feature without adding another processor and some way to =
coordinate it with the existing processors.

Of course, you could opt for 8-bit sounds if you like that sort of thing =
and perhaps get all the voices you can handle. It=92s easy to add =
crappy-sounding voices.
