[sdiy] Filters

[Juho Lepistö]

I've checked out ASM1. ASM1 is fine for me expect few things:
-The filter is 12db? Maybe 24db filter would be nice addition.
-Additional ring modulator.
-Additional distortion module.

I know this means LOTS of work but good thing that I have lots of free time.

How much does a basic module synth components cost?
