[sdiy] TR-808 DIY Mods

[Louis van Dompselaar]

There are numerous mods mentioned on the clone pages of microLarge: http://xlargex.xl.funpic.de/
(Menu TR-808 clone -> Modifications)

Most of these were included in the MB808 project too (http://www.eight-oh-eight.org/) so probably
generally considered useful enough.
