[sdiy] M-Audio Radium CV to MIDI mod

[crystal]

i have been thinking of doing something similar for a while. my idea was to 
make a dedicated module for sampling control voltages and playing them back 
with some very basic looping features. mostly to sample CVs that i generate 
with knobs, sliders, and joysticks (pots), which btw are my favorite ways to 
generate CVs.

should be fairly easy to do with a PIC or something.

happy synthesizing,
