[sdiy] FatMan Hacking ( and I dont mean hitting me with an Axe!)

Hi

    One thing that you could try is use the unused half of the 13600 /13700
used for the VCA as a third stage for the VCF to get the 18 db resposnse, it
would take some trace cutting and the addition of a small board but nothing to
hard You also should try overdriveing the VCOs and play with the resosnance
loop to get the filter to oscilate, and if you are really lucky it will sound
like a 303, but most likely it will sound like a fatman with a 18db VCF that is
being oversriven.
