Sorry for the basic question, but which are the offset resistors? The
ones around the tl072 that outputs to the saw out?
If so, I should mention I am using a 270k instead of the 240k, and a
560k instead of the 330k, which is what the elby instructions said to
do. I think everything else is per the schematics.
