I just plan to do a layout with all the pots on the edge of the board, with
a couple minor mods like CV Tuning.  Might be overkill for the circuit, but
the board will hold the pots in place :-)

I just got a 9090 board set from Trevor ( yay! ) but I love that 808 bass,
when its abused...

I should have clean photocopies of the manual in the next day or so and I'll
just go from that.
