actually this is what i had in mind when i designed it - the original synth 
("entity", running on chameleon) had a stereo voice structure - 3 pannable oscs 
into twin (i.e. left + right) filters. (i relied in the oscs to differentiate 
the channels, but in a previous version i used a small cutoff offset to provide 
some subtle differentiation, which is really effective - especially in digital, 
where the cutoff can be offset with some precision)

the only thing that could really improve on this is if both filters are cascaded 
hi and low pass (i.e. 4 filters total)

i mean, crazy man.
