Cgs synth

Thanks Ken, I just wired up the vca and it sounds good to me.

I didn't match the bc548's so maybe i got lucky.

I did match the dual npn's using the HFE test function.

I don't have any trimmers yet so i'm hearing the thump of dc coming through but other than that the source signal sounded good.

Thanks for all your help !
