I think it was more of a situation that you couldn=E2=80=99t retune the =
sequencers during a performance.  You really needed them set up and =
tuned in advance and, while you could change the base voltage, you =
couldn=E2=80=99t really change the step voltage live.  However, the 960 =
sequencer has some great features for skipping steps and resetting on a =
particular step that can make them a creative performance tool with some =
practice.

Moog has always been 1V/oct.

I=E2=80=99m amused with the inspiration for the album name.  That was =
the first video game we had at home!

Buchla 1.2 V/octave), then all it would take is a CV mixer to add (or =
subtract) a constant voltage before feeding the oscillator(s) input.
