Somebody didn't do their math for the manual.

79 sources, right?  Two of them are Tracking Generator level and TG 
step, each with 79 sources for inputs.  So that's actually 77 (less 2 TG 
sources) plus 79 plus 79 equals 235 sources.

For each of the 175 destinations that's 235 different sources to choose 
from.

There are 45 MOD buttons but don't forget the 34 Croutes!  Total 79 
modulation paths.

79 modulation paths times 175 destinations times 235 sources equals 
*3,248,875* possible modulation configurations.

Have fun :)
