MOTM

I don't see any comments on the user's guide to indicate that it's been rewritten.  The panel is the 2nd in the users' guide (3 knobs, 6 jacks), just to be clear.  Thanks for the conf. on the caps and ICs!  R15-17, TL071 (U1), and 3rd 33pF cap (C8) were supplied for the inverter, so I popped them in there.  Suppose it doesn't matter since the in and out pads won't be connected?  (Again, should have read more closely before starting...)

So I've already gone and soldered in Q2, D4, and R30-32.  I won't have anything attached to CV2; should I remove this when I LK up LFO 1 and 2?  I'm guessing it won't effect the circuit, but I'm not sure...

(No need to appologize for the oops in the user's guide, BTW.  I'm more than happy that I got the sucker and am actually enjoying this debugging process.  Call it in-house skills training.  ;)

Thanks!!  :)

Firstly I am unsure whether you have got my User Guide or one that Todd
has written. I know Todd was going to re-write some of mine to make it
more applicable to the front panel supplied.

>Second, be careful about where you put your 33pF ceramic caps.  The
user's guide only mentions C8, C10, C11.  But for the supplied panel,
they need to go into C8, C12, and C15.

Only C12 and C15 are needed. I don't think you are using the invertor
circuit at all.

>I'm a little confused as to whether we're supposed to short the LK for
the supplied panel.

LK is fitted if you are only controlling the VCAs with one CV. I think
you are in Todd's panel design. If this is so, then fit LK but do not
fit Q2 and the components around it.
