I just got an MS20M kit, and looking over the boards I noticed a little circuit for an AD633 multiplier chip (I believe commonly used for ring modulation), which wasn't included in the final production (not on mine anyhow).
I understand the original MS20 ring mod was not exactly ring modulation but an XOR which provides a similar effect, but without the cost of the multiplier chip. Is it possible then that Korg considered adding this multiplier as a feature of the new keyboardless version, but then changed their minds for some reason? Or could it be a potential mod for users (like the graciously marked board pins) who are technically inclined to work it out and add themselves?
I am just curious really, so any thoughts or info would be most welcome from all you knowledgable Korg users.
