Hey Paul,

I think I made a good choice as well. I have always wanted the 303 but I 
was never able to find one or if one did pop up, I didn't have the money 
for it.
Owning one now totally fulfills that void I had for so long. Sort of 
like getting the girl you always had a crush on. 
I'm still getting my head around programming the 303 but my SH-5 will be 
the first thing it'll be driving.

I can see why the 303 flopped when it came out. For such a small box, it 
is not that intuitive to program. I downloaded the manual for it and I 
am still trying to make heads and tails of it.

The 303 is learnable but programming the 202 has been quite cryptic. At 
the moment, I have been playing with the 303 more and using the 202 as a 
control unit driving the 606 and 303 since it has 2 sync outs and 1 sync in.
I did notice the 202 does not quite reach the lower notes and I wish the 
filter had a lower slope but overall a cool little synth.

I'll have a few days of next week so I'm going to spend them  learning 
to program the  202 and 303.  Any good tips or sites you can recommend?
