AW: [Doepfer_a100] A-127 as triple LFO?

The LFO outputs are available at pin 7 (triangle) and pin 8 (rectangle) of
the TL084. 1k protection resistors should be used to connect these pins to
the additional sockets. And a simple voltage divider made of two resistors
is recommended for the rectangle output because pin 8 outputs about +/-11V
(i.e. ~ 22V overall voltage level).
