[sdiy] VCA madness

[Simon Richardson]

Hi all,

I've built two ASM-2 boards with a view to putting together a big 
banana patch thing. Between them the boards provide 4 VCAs which should 
be enough, but I'm tempted to put in a lot of extra VCAs since VCAs are 
fairly easy and inexpensive to build.

Plan A
There would be a VCA on each of the major outputs - LFOs, ADSRs, VCFs, 
etc. Done like this the VCAs won't visible at all; there will be AM 
controls on the outputs instead.

Plan B
Use the 4 VCAs as mixers with AM on the outputs, perhaps 4 inputs each.

So... is Plan A crazy? I know the answer is - "if that's what you want 
then it's right" - but I'd be interested to hear any opinions about 
doing this.
