Odp: [sdiy] Useful equipment

[Roman]

I think it's a dream that everyone here has - to
meet one day
and patch the biggest modular setup ever seen.
And I'm sure that if someone builds synths, has
also some
commercial gear tuned to 1.000V/oct and wants to
play
them along from same keyboard or whatever.
Besides, when measuring, say, 3V with 3 1/2 digit
DVM
the redout is only 2 1/2 digit, and the resolution
+/-10mV.
And 4 1/2 DVMs are ussualy better in terms of
stability
accuracy and workmanship, I guess...

digits.  You need this kind of resolution for
tuning your VCO's.  A DVM is a must.
