Bob,

We will shortly (July / Aug) have a solution. It will be a drive that
takes full step puses, multiples them by 10 and sends them to our 10
microstep (G201) drive. The result will be a drive that moves the
motor as smoothly as a microstepper, yet can be driven with a full
step controller. It will banish the low speed resonaces and vibration
full step drives exhibit while being able to accept step pulses from
a cost sensetive full step controller. It will be called the G210.
