MOTM

Hey Dave,

Didn't you mention several months ago that this module became the basis for 
another more common Serge module (maybe the DSG -- though I don't see a 
connection)? I'd be interested in how this module evolved, and what features 
it shares with its descendent module and how similar (and different) they are.

Thanks!
JB

no,that wasn`t me. we did talk a bit about module "evolution" regarding the 
former positive and negative slew modules being separate along with there 
being another dual slope module. these three became the dsg primarily and the 
dtg, to a lesser degree in the more current series of modules. or so i had 
been told by serge back in the early `80s.
