During Legowelt’s Studio Tour for Future Music Magazine, at 23:26 Legowelt describes how he has been waiting for Tom Oberheim to come out with a two voice module. As Legowelt grew more impatient with the release he decided to create his own two voice module by using his Oberhiem SEMs with a MIDIpal (shown at 24:45) analog box, which allows him to create two or three voices.
