I just finished my 490. This filterROCKS!
I did find the resonance setting a bit toosudden, so I changed R29 to a 68K to have more range for low resonance, assuggested in the assembly doc. Fortunately I was able to do this fromthe top of the PCB without disassembling the module.

Though it could just be the tuning difference noted below, I like thesound
of the 490better. To me it sounds more "vintage" and"warm". :) I assume
most peoplewill be going for that kind of sound with that filter (I know I
will). I hear Wakeman and Emerson, rather than Carlos - which was perhaps
intendedbased on Paul's comment about it being close enough for rock, etc.
(So maybe itdoes sound a little like a Mini, and not strictly like the 904a
- thoughI've never owned/played either so I couldn't say.)
