What the crap do you want to make it into a module for when you could turn it into THIS!!!!!!
I stumbled upon Dr. Paradiso's site once about three years ago and I've been addicted to modular synthesizers ever since! Luckily I also stumbled upon the synthesizers.com site and found out you don't necessarily have to be a rocket scientist or a millionare to acquire one:)
I'd like to know what all he did and maybe just make a fancy Dotcom format interface module with a giant cable snake to a relatively unaltered VL-Tone.
