		The Fat Controller is a dual channel, 16 note true analog a sequencer built for real time tweaking and ease of use.
		You can use the Fat Controller on its own, without midi, as a sequencer to drive any analog synth with gate and control voltage inputs.
		With the quantize function on, the output is in 1/12 volt steps to match an oct/v synth such as Roland or Moog, but when unquantised you can adjust the sliders to any voltage you want, whether driving a MS20, a CS15, a Moog, a MOTM or whatever.

	Guardian \| The fat controller
		It's an obvious point of course, and using fat Americans to make it is easier than shooting hugely overweight fish in a small barrel, but Prentice is desperate to emphasise that obesity is not just a problem for the US and other developed countries.
		Around the world, researchers were racing to unravel the chemical problems experts believed were responsible for obese people being unable to control their weight.
		The problem is that for an increasing number of people this physiological control doesn't work, because the other systems that produce and deliver food, and save us from expending energy, work too well.

	FAT CONTROLLER
		The ribbon controller is a revelation, with a crisp feel that puts it into a different league to the old ribbons found on Multimoogs (it also offers both sideways and pressure sensitivity).
		These control 'swing' by shifting the timing of some beats, or changing the velocity ratio between the highest and lowest velocities (similar to using an audio expander or compressor), or altering the gate time.
		Imagine having four separate tracks of control information assigned to specific parameters inside the synthesizer, and which can either be sync'ed to the arpeggio or sequencer clock, or run asynchronously for a given time and then looped, and you have the Free EG controller (see diagram, right).
