[sdiy] ARP Axxe front panel ready

[Bob Weigel]

I posted pics of the first article photo on the 
sounddoctorin.com/synthtec/synth.htm pages (just follow the usualy 
clicks to the arp axxe and in the 'modifications' is a link..) The glow 
in the dark one is being made soon.  I'm trying to get the cs60 and 
memorymoog ready soon so that I can do the 'sea of keys in the key of c' 
video/composition :-)  It'll be a slow run through of the studio/museum 
here with a composition that develops using the instruments that are 
looming into view.
