There was a UK thing called the Wasp that was great, they are worth a small fortune now. I built a Wasp filter clonge for my modular.
The Gnome was like like a Stylophone synth. When I built mine and it turned out the instructions were wrong . It wasn't fun by the time I got it working..

What's twice as useless as a Monotron? Two of them.
