I didn't even know that it came out in 93.

That's why I got so confused.
I didn't doubt what you were saying though, You're right there was no modeling in 93. VL-1 was still just an idea and nobody even thought of analog modeling. I was too busy with recording around that time to pay attention to synth market.

BTW
A found a NORD modular (for about a $1000 canadian). Do you think it's worth pickong up, or should I wait for next version ro come out (the G2 I think).
