Hi Florian, I don't think there's a problem with the fuses but maybe I'm looking at the wrong fuse. What am I looking for? Do you know if this has happened to anyone else? Seems strange to have happened twice now. Thanks, Rory

If you modulate the CV input of the VCF (which you placed after the BBD) with an EG or envelope follower, it is possible to keep the characteristic BBD sound for exactly the time desired, after which the clock is slowly filtered out entirely in the time set by the "release" contr
