It seems like, yes! Of course we can't try it in the real world, but my experiments with all the emulators also showed that it is the only 100%
working configuration. If you put it eg. to the 3rd lower slot, it gives you a BREAK when trying a Magic Voice command (BTW: Commodore engineers called it 'Tragic Voice' :-) )

I tried it, and man, you were right! I've never known this!

A good thing would be to understand the means of the PARCOR synthesis, so then the Magic Voice for CV364 could be completely reconstructed.
