my only gripe regarding the WarpFactory in a live setup (which i 
haven't done yet...it sits in my studio rack) would be that there is 
no 'mix' knob for the robot pitch knob.  It's such a cool distinctive 
sound of the vocoder, but man... if you're not using the robot pitch 
and then you want to use it, it pops out of nowhere and is pretty 
loud on its introduction into the signal.

since we have the electrix crew here on list and lots of other 
warpfactory users...could a mix pot for the robot pitch be added in 
as a mod somehow?

is that even remotely realistic?

hmm...are you asking first?
