Re: Gr-33/VG8

Agreed.  I couldn't tell the difference in tracking from the GR-30 to 
the 33, but the sounds seem equally lame.  I ended up going with a 
totally different synth module, which works well.  My ultimate goal is 
to ditch the GR-30 and go with the Axion, which seems great for tracking.
