Interesting video. I didn't know the Model D's oscillators were that bright. I'll see if I could do similar tests for the oscillators and filters with the Sub. That should gives you an idea how close (and different) it is to the Model D.

There :

Triangle, Saw, Square, 50% Pulse, 100% Pulse, Variable waveform. Filter 0% resonance, 50% and 80%.
Overall, the resonance is much more pronounced than the Model D, similar to the Voyager, but the oscillators are richer than the Voyager.
So, no, the Sub Phatty is not a Model D. However, it's very capable of emulating it if you're careful.

Thanks so much for your help! I'm downloading now.
Just in case you were interested - much of the mini's buzzy top end comes from distorting the VCA by having the oscs turned all the way up - just how the sub-phatty is able to do - which is why i assumed/believed that the sub-phatty could get much closer to the sound of a mini.
The voyager/LP has a very clean (and technically a more 'pure') path and only distorts when you use actual distortion (or distort the filter).
Does anyone think that this technology might get ported to a LPIII or a Voyager II? It would be strange to NOT do it - surely? I'm thinking the sub-phatty could be just the beginning
Cheers!
