[sdiy] question about pot size?

[Peter Grenader]

I agree with this.  From a person who's large system is 100% in the form
factor of Analogue Systems/Doepfer/Blacet.etc, etc, you may find this a bit
wack.  But, I do miss those 2 inch frequency knobs of the Buchla 200s VCO.

As far as tweaking once a patch is up and going, I mostly rely on voltage to
do this, so the pots are pretty much set and forget.
