I'm planning on mounting two CatGirlSynth Analogue Shift Registers
behind on 1U Stooge panel. I'm thinking ten jacks: two inputs, two
clock inputs, and six outputs (the inputs could easily be jack
normalled) like this:
IN OUT1
OUT2
CLK OUT3
1N OUT1
OUT2
CLK OUT3
How does that sound?? I figure if we all agree, we can order a bunch
of them together. A space for an LED could be placed between the IN
and CLK inputs, and "masked off" for anyone who doesn't want to add
an LED.

Now, afaik, Stooge Heavy Industries does not offer a bracket for
knobless modules, but maybe if enough of us are interested they could
design one?? It would be perfect for logic modules, breakout panels,
gate sequencers, etc. Moe?? Larry??
With a panel and bracket it should be very easy to build.
Ken's circuit suggests an LF356 (a single JFET op-amp in an 8-pin
DIP) for the sample & hold circuits, but All ELectronics has LF355's
for $.45 each:

http://www.national.com/pf/LF/LF355.htmlWhile Ken's circuit uses a TL074 for input/output buffers, I'm
planning on using LT1014 (a quad LT1013) for more accurate CV
handling. While a 4052 should work fine, I'm considering a pin for
pin replacement with better specs. Any suggestions??
