Maybe I was not clear enough that the jury is still out on this. Up to
now I haven't found the right combination of settings, which is not say
that they do not exist. With the neutral - out of the box - settings the
modulation of the K3 is very clean and very nice, but not exactly what
you are looking for in a contest situation.
