Did somebody say "Synthesizers"?!?

Hi Tom and all,
A busy past few work weeks have kept me busy.
But when I can get some SynthDIY in edgewise...I have been working on 
some "odds and ends" type analog modules.

1) A "0 - 10VDC" volt meter module that uses a nice little 0-10V Simpson 
analog meter movement that I happen to have sitting around. A couple of 
banana jacks for the +/- inputs and a polarity reverse switch.

2) Adapter interface panel with several rows of connected 1/4" phone 
jack <-> 1/8" mini phone jack <-> banana/binding posts.

3) Output interface panel with 3 input mixer, bass/mid/treble EQ, master 
level control, buffered output that can drive a 600 ohm line, and power 
on/off transient supression.

4) A "standards" panel with a precision 1.0000 and 10.000 volt 
references, 440Hz and 1000Hz sine wave tone sources.

These are what are on my plate for now.
Then I'm going to tool around with some sequencer designs...

A big thanks to all on SynthDIY for being a great inspiration!
Happy soldering!
- Oren
