[sdiy] Update on my arpeggiator

[ChristianH]

um, Harry, I don't think that will work. Those harmonics gather inside
the filter - they won't get to the VCA at all (that's what the filter is
about).
Maybe drill a whole at the bottom of the filter ladder, and put a bucket
underneath...? You could even use multiple, say 512, buckets in a row <ducks
and runs away>
