FW: [sdiy] Aries modulars

[phillip m gallo]

1)
TAU = '70's synth module kit's,   
2)
DynaSyn= potted modules for expo-generation and a Universal Synth
Component (which looked like at OTA front-ended with matched FET's and a
post-OTA inverting op-amp),   
3)
CFR = Synth kits, DynaSyn modules and the famous synthesizer related
"Tech Notes",
4)
ElectroScience Mart = Electronic surplus and was the "elephants
graveyard for ARIES synthesizers".

regards,
p
