Actually, i have built the sequential switch as well, but have some
issues (which we all might be able to clear out).

a)
Regarding the board:

- you need a glide board from him in order to get glide working.
- then you need to cut a trace and "insert" the glide module in the
signal path
- MIX OUT is already on the board.

--> i still have some issues with it. will debug on this tomorrow.

b)

according to scott (and me):

"
+VE via 1K to all switched lug of all jacks. Each jack goes to left
side of each pot. Right side of each pot to ground. Wiper of each pot
to bottom lug of each switch. Top lug of each switch to ground. Middle
lug of each switch to PCB input.

This way, with no inputs jacks used, it is a typical sequencer. Insert
CVs or audio and you can sequence them instead. The switches would
probably be used more with audio, or at audio rates."

hope that helps
