do it right to begin with, so if I wanted to make it VCQ later, it was already
done, and instead of audio going through a panel pot, it was just reference
voltages. "Easier" wasn't the right word. "Better" would be the better

Yes, even on an analog modular filter, it is often easier to design a VCQ</P>
<P dir=ltr>How can it be easier to design a VCQ than to not design a VCQ?
:-)</P>
<P dir=ltr>> and then just have a panel pot which sends a fixed voltage to
it, and leave<BR>> the VC controls off the panel.</P>
<P dir=ltr>What becomes easier I guess is that you can get away with a
standard Q potentiometer, you don't have to use a, say, reverse log pot with
odd value. Provided that you do the transfer function magic in your VCQ
circuits instead.</P>
<P dir=ltr>Not having to route audio through a panel pot could be considered
easier as well, but instead there are CV signals to route there, so no big
difference perhaps.</P>
