[sdiy] Vote for your favorite noise source

[Happy Harry]

Its hard to define up without some reference standard.

To define the "best" noise source we need a reference...
a standard by which all others are judged...

The WORST noise source in the world is the MM5837 (National Semi)

as used in some Prophet V rev3 and some Korg MonoPoly models...

tic tic tic....
