Thanks for the LM4040 reference, I didn't know about these parts.

Regarding "crap": you've only been designing synth circuits since, what? the 70's? You think you'd be better at it by now.  :-p  You old timers should have "EN" numbers, sort of like an "Erdős number" - it would be the first issue of EN that you were published in.  So Bernie would have #1.
