I'm (slowly) working on a CV controller and am looking for a 
buffer op-amp for the output.  Can anyone recommend a chip?  
Here is my shopping list...

Need:
Operate on single 5v supply.
Enough current to drive several CV inputs on 
things like minimoog, odyssey, sh-101, arp seq.

Really hoping for:
Output goes to within about 0.5v of the rails.

Would like:
Not surface mount.
Easy to get and semi-cheap.
Dual or quad.

Not too concerned with:
Offset.
Frequency response.
Input impedance.
High gain.

I'm finding that I have the op-amp skills of a breadstick.
It seems that the combination of single 5v supply and 
output going nearly to rails is the killer.
