[sdiy] Discrete OTA -> Crux VCA and Nucleus VCF

[Rutger Vlek]

Hi all,

I took the liberty of digging up this moderately old topic for a little bit of shameless self-promotion, but mostly a great thank you to many people on the list! After a lot of time designing and tweaking I finished designs for two new modules: the Crux VCA and Nucleus VCF, which will become available in a couple of months and for which I'm now taking pre-orders on muffwiggler. A more elaborate explanation of how the modules were conceived, what they look and sound like, can be found in this thread: https://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2010096#2010096 .

But most importantly, I'd like to thank everyone on this list who commented, solved problems, helped me learn and kept me enthusiastic for synth DIY. It's great to be part of this community.

Regards,

Rutger

Food and gass is more expensive than in US, but you'll get used to that, as apartments are almost free of charge from your point of view.
