      "No zipper noise?"<br>
      <br>
      Oh, I only used that on prototype boards, and yeah it had some
      noise there.<br>
      I hadn't thought about that coming from the switching, I assumed
      it was SPI and my "wild wire" board and that a proper PCB layout
      may cure that.<br>
      Also I personally don't care that much at least for the simple
      synth designs where I don't modulate resonance, so the noise would
      be only there on setup, not playing, and since it's not commercial
      and does not need to seem super polished, oh well ;-)<br>
      <br>
      So I guess that reduces the use of that for some people, unless
      such noise can be alleviated with some external circuitry.<br>

            Reading the thread "non-mechanical switching solutions",<br>
            I just remembered a nice series of digital potentiometers
            which I discovered some months ago,<br>
            which are SDIY friendly ( for those not afraid of TSSOP ;)
            ), as they<br>
            - support +/- 18V dual rails<br>
            - digital voltage: 2.7 ... 5.5V (or even 1.8V)<br>
            - cost less than 2 bucks<br>
            <br>
            I have used, as an experiment, digi pots in some VCFs to
            easily control resonance from an MCU, but before I found
            those here, I only knew similar products in a price range of
            8...12 US$ or something like that.<br>
            <br>
            So I just thought, I'll throw that in here, maybe someone
            else also only knew the expensive ones.<br>

                The DG409 has on the order of 100R - 120R.  Too much,
