Hey, Matrix-12 owners!  We've got the ultimate analog/digital hybrid
synth every designed...so let's talk about it!  Xpander users should
also feel free to comment.

For anyone unfamiliar with the Matrix, picture a 12-voice analog
synth with 2 VCO's, 15-mode filter (lowpass, highpass, bandpass,
notch, & phase shift modes in various combinations), 15 VCA's,
5 LFO's, 5 DADSR envelopes, frequency modulation, and a pile of
other features on EVERY SINGLE VOICE; each voice can have a completely
different patch.  The velocity/release/pressure sensitive keyboard
can have up to 6 overlapping split points ("zones").  Plus, you can
have anything modulating anything; there are at least 10 to the 100th
power different modulation combinations!  The MIDI implementation is
the most complete I have seen.  All this for about $3800 (Medley Music
in Bryn Mawr, PA is where I got mine).

Anybody out there?
