Here's a short demo of the tb vco and vcf . They are mostly 
real except, I've changed the bias scheme so that everybody
is happy at +/-12V and stuffed the vco in a 3046. Oh....The
vcf is entirely discreet but will end up mostly in 3046s too.

No midi or sequencing this time it's all real time Tom...

And here's a pic or two of the glob of wires that makes this 
all possible.....I really just tossed these in to make Harry
freak. Sit down before you look Harry......;-)
