<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

sounds. A handful of components, some switches and potentiometers, a 9V
battery, one CD40106 chip (actually half a chip) to get Zany, Wacky, and Weird
Sounds. Add another chip (general purpose Op-Amp like a LM741) and you step up
to Odd sounds. Who could ask for anything more. If you have kids make one for
them and they'll keep their sticky little hands off of your Moog or Buchla or
(and far more importantly) your lovingly crafted synth-diy " treasures. <font
