Re: Fine tuning the Synthacon(TO KEN or anyone else that can help!)

Ken,
My 2nd question is from your Synthacon mod webpage under...

"Notes from John Loffink"

Again it's...

" I also added 220K of series resistance to the FREQ knob."

Do I just put a 220k resistor from wire from the board to the
middle terminal of the FREQ pot?

I'd just like to understand how to do this.

Thanks

Dave
