I think I'd also add circuit complexity to the list too. One of the
main concerns, especially for beginner DIY'ers, is to keep it simple, and
jumping into a complex circuit isn't necessarily a good idea.
Just as an example, the ASM-1 LFO is very simple whereas the Formant
LFO is more complex. This kind of database listing would be very good
I think. :)
