George,
your objections are perfectly right and using 1U for just "4 holes" is
a nonsense... the fact is that I was following a mental process that I
didn't actually express and I may try to clarify now:What to do with
these four independent outputs? If you want to treat them separately
you could send each to a different filter (too expensive!) since the
sound is rather rough and needs a "treatment"... yet the four outputs
are far from being independent sound sources, it is not like having 4
additional VCOs of course since the frequencies are fixed.A companion
module might have
a low cost dual eq for each output (bass treble with coaxial
pots?)That would be four pots and four jacks. The use of these four
sources would be more versatile this way I think.
