It's a circuit, it either works or it doesn't. Whether the opamps are SMD or through-hole does not affect the sound. Using modern metal film resistors instead of old-fashioned carbon comp does not affect the sound. No-one can tell the difference between the modern DSP-based Roland Boutique reproductions of their 1980s synths and the originals in a mix, and very few can tell them apart even in isolation in a proper blind test. -- Gordonjcp _______________________________________________ Ardour-Users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or change your mailing preferences please visit: http://lists.ardour.org/listinfo.cgi/ardour-users-ardour.org
