I seem to recall the Alesis Quadraverb-GT having programmable
resonators. Maybe Kris could check the back of his closet.
This also sounds like something that could be built in Reactor
and then used as a plugin. (I'm just speculating - I don't have Reactor
myself but I heard Rob Hoare play some great things on sax and flute
through Reactor within Logic last night at the PiNG.)
