[sdiy] classic transistor VCO's

[Dan Snazelle]

Ok

so i got the Odyssey manual and the 2600 oscillator sub module (although i cant find schematic for the earliest vco submodules)

and all i can say is WOW

it is SO easy to READ compared to MOOG or BUCHLA.

so, i guess my question is WHAT IS THE CATCH? all this easy to read stuff seems like a gold mine of ideas!!

thanks

wasnt someone doing an Odyssey vco pcb at some point?
