edit: Sonidero beat me to it

I got one, it is cool, but I have actually been side stepping it with other new gear, in fact the MP-201 kind of renders it obsolete for me but not totally.

Sorry , I don't want to go off topic, but could you tell me whether the Moog MP201 works with the regular Xerograph Deluxe?

Don't be scared.
The answer is no, that is why I sold my Xerograph DLX.

Thanks!
I already thought so, that's why I went the Expressionator route but it's good to know it from someone with first hand experience. :)
I was reading the manual and that 8 Step Program seems interesting, it can do a lot, it even has 10 memory patches without the need for the extra footswitch.
I was thinking about possibly hooking it up to the Expressionator for a massive controller switching rig with an expression pedal, Hot Hand 3 and 8 Step Program. :)

It would bring a lot to the table.

I think so, on the other hand a table probably won't cut it, the pedalboard to handle all my shit is going to be huge, I already should downsize it. :lol:
So far you seem to be the only one that I know of out there with an 8 Step Program, I was thinking of getting one from Prymaxe but then again these are the kind of things (Electro Harmonix) I'd like to get with warranty so I'll probably have to get one here in The Netherlands, that is if they ever get here. :)

The MP-201 doesn't have a sequencer in it, though, does it? I thought it only had LFOs and the CV and expression outs. If you want the sequenced jank, this EHXer looks pretty cool. Especially since the chance of getting the Frostwave unit is basically nil at this point.

There is room for the 8 Step, the MP-201 can send out envelopes and gates too.

And if you trigger it from a midi sequencer... Boom, no Need for the Little ehx. At least for me.
MP201 can't send Expression Signals, just cv.

Just curious, could this 8 Step combined with lets say a Dr. Scientist Tremolessence basically be a Goatkeeper in disguise or doesn't it work that way?
Could it also make any analog echo with expression control over time into a tap tempo delay?
Sorry if they're obvious questions with obvious answers :why: , I've been reading the manual but so far it only got me something like this -> :whoa: :?:
