Top 1O Modules

[Jeff Foster]

my $0.02

how about utility modules?
we talk about filters, vco and vcas most of the time, but we must not
forget the
"control" in cv .. ;-)

comparators, trigger extractors, voltage processors, random cv,
bias/offset voltage and gate logic units all come to mind.
I like the variable window comparator in  the Jung book( "Op Amp
cookbook",3rd Ed.), pg 413.
These are simple circuits, but very useful in the design of cv analog
sound.
