I think this is the "mystery circuit board" JH pointed out on his
website a while back. It sounds like a filterbank. The interesting part
to me is that he is modulating the (traditionally adjusted by panel pots)
filter corners (the "talking synthesizer" mp3) using an envelope follower
for a 'quasi-vocoder' sound. A voltage-controlled filterbank?
