I replaced the resistor on mine when I built it for the simple reason that I
used to have an Electrix FilterFactory, and it broke into oscillation at
about 12 o'clock on the knob. This really bothered me because it made the
rest of the knob rotation more or less useless to me. I figured that this
suggested I don't like filters that self-oscillate easily, and hence would
be happier with a modified 490. I'm happy with my modified 490, so I guess I
was right.
