Looking very good - don't worry too much about neat wiring as nice looming can lead to crosstalk (in my experience) - good skills Guy.

Best wishes

Linear FM is "to deep", VCA goes to overdrive when fully AM'ed (though with a nicely, tubey sounding distortion), and I'm not very happy with the way the Slew Limiter works. Lopass cutoff has a bit of a "knee" in the higher frequencies, though I reckon there's nothing I can do about that.
