Re: Intro and questions
Nice demos there Andy. The CEM chips labels are 3374 for the dual vco and 3372 for the vcf chip, i think you will be able to find the 3372 filter chips quite easily on ebay, but the dual vco chip is

Re: Why no Xpander mod. matrix implementation?
The only difference in the front panel is an extra button and led to toggle between the voices 1-6 and 7-12. ?So thinking about just adding the firmware from an M12 and then switching off the

Re: Why no Xpander mod. matrix implementation?
Never mind. I thought the M12 has an extra display ;-) In that case- you've got a good point. I wonder why they didn't make a FW update for the Xpander. Sounds like a job for Neil Bradley.

What do you mean? They both have the same displays.

Why no Xpander mod. matrix implementation?
I was wondering why the M12 mod. matrix was never retroactively implemented in the Xpander? It's all software, so it seems like an update would've been easy. (And "Name" is just so lonely in the Misc

Re: Chaining multiple Xpanders
I sold my Matrix-1000 years ago ¨C?sounds like a distant cousin of the Xpander, so not really an option. The suggestion about copying a patch to six voices, then detuning each, is a great workaround

Re: Chaining multiple Xpanders
I think you're correct Jeremy, but having more voices appears to be the primary concern. Not being able to detune each channel isn't such a limitation <jeremy@...>wrote:

Re: Chaining multiple Xpanders
Youre free to use several Matrix-1000,- each one on a different MIDI channel, each one plays the same or a different sound, each one set to unison if you want and play em simultaneously that way,- if

Re: Chaining multiple Xpanders
I seriously doubt it. You'd have to modify the firmware to do that, and chances are the CPU's are already maxed out. You can already hear the CPU's lagging when complex modulations are used, when the

Thanks, but I want to actually play the instrument with more than six voices for writing music, not just for sequencing. Perhaps... but as Jeremy mentioned, the Matrix-12 also lacks the individual
