are not going to acquire any additional 566's then i'd save it as a spare to fix
any potential failure in the other 3. Just by having this chip, at
hand, & in known, easy to get to place, will often assuage Murphy so
that the others will not ever fail.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

decision<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have 4 566's. 3 are ear-marked for a
variation on the Clangora from Midwest Analog (in Nuts and Volts back
issue).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm going to make the attack adjustable and make
some other mods. Basically it will be doing mostly FM stuff, but it will be
pretty much a self contained synth with 2 VCA's and 2 VCF's etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The tough decision is what to do with the 4th 566.
I thought maybe I'd just put them all 4 together and not put in any other
oscillators - the 566's would be the LFO's as well.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sounds settled but a little voice in my head says
'maybe you could do something cool with just the one or put it together with
some of the 567's, 564's or 565's that you have.'</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I know in the end it will end up being whatever I
feel like doing, but I wanna know: what would YOU guys do?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't think I'll ever be getting any more 566's.
They seem really well suited for FM synth apps though. I thought about making
them all into a whacky large metal space chime using those piezo-gyros I have...
(though I may still put those in my xr2206 picogenerator)</FONT></DIV>
