Re: Plan B ELF LFO

Yes, it has an attenuator for the Freq VC.  All the way CW equals
1v/oct.  There's a trim pot on board to adjust that to make sure it
happens in everyone's system.

reasonably as powerful as a 147 this sounds good. Now, will the VC
input have an attenuator? No big whoop either way.

Imagine have 3 fully independent LFOs in the space of a single
Analogue Systems RS80. Now we're talkin'...
