[sdiy] pitch to cv converter

[Rude 66]

the best one i've heard, and the only one that really works quite well, is
the gentle electric one. it's part of our CEM's serge rig, but apparantly
they're not only discontinued, but also very rare.. the ms20
pitch-to-voltage does work, but is hard to set up and keep tracking over a
longer range..
