dustin.

you can get a lot of help from Ken, the SDIY list, or the CGS list on Yahoo
if you ask specific questions... but hard to help with no detail.

there are a lot of options in this design, a good strategy would be to
ignore the +/- control section (CV1 &2), the sine/variable shapers, and the
suboctave, and concentrate on the core... once you get that working, attack
those optional sections one by one.

i've built a couple dozen CGS boards, the designs are solid but are not
necessarily for beginners... and the VCO is one of the most complex
projects.  if you decide to go with a full kit, as an alternative to the
PAIA i'd highly recommend the Blacet VCO kits...  i have built 4, and they
are the workhorses of my system.  all parts included, step-by-step
documentation, and great support from john.  something to be said for
spending a little more on something as critical as the VCO.
