[sdiy] Going beyond kits

Yes with Electronotes...But really best to start looking at schematics
from Electro-Music forum, Muffwiggler DIY and CGS stuff. I'd highly
recommend doing something simpler then a VCO for your first build from
scratch. Like an LFO, or a VCF...these need less calibration steps and
you'll have more hair after you build those than a VCO.

Also I highly recommend the Aaron Lanterman lectures from GATech, that
I scoured from across the web and posted to youtube. Lot's of great
info about opamps and filters and synthDIY building.
