Subject: Receiving assembled VCOs

From: "Paul Schreiber" <synth1@...>

Just a little "white paper":

VCOs shipped assembled are calibrated to 1V/oct using ∗my∗ MIDI-to-CV
converter(s). Yours
will of course be different! So, there is a good chance that a ∗very∗ small
tweak will be required to set
VCOs to track to your liking. The MOTM-300 ∗will∗ show a differences of
500uV between converters!

This is especially true if you use something like an old analog synth
(Minimoog, for example) that uses
1% resistor divider strings or Roland 18x keyboards with 8-bit DACs.
