i dont like the analog dist curcuit either, no warmth, no intermediate 
results, it screws up the sound
the moment it's on. I'm going monday to the local shop carrying EHX 
products. They have a stereo,
line/keyboard impedance input dual tube pedal ( LPB 2ube), made to impart 
anything from discrete "warming" to full overdrive to your synth sound. i'm 
eager to see how it sounds, altough
they only have a NL3 in the shop. EHX is advertising its working on 300V, so 
it's no "starved plate" cheap tube design. who knows..

>What is everyone here using to process the A6? TCs? Lexicons? Eventides?

sometimes i run it thru onboard delays and use reverb from Roland SRV3030 
and TC Reverb4000.
I must admit, for most sounds, the very cheap roland is better suited than 
TC, unless realistic rev is called for. I played A6 lead once thru some 
analog delay>stereo plate preset on ORVILLE ,
and it is the most beautiful combination i've ever heard. i thought TC will 
solve all my rev needs, but
eventide and lexicons are far better for synths/ambient processing and FX 
type reverbs, it seems.
