Hi John,

I didn't understand this (specifically the RM), did you really mean to use an 
EG (a DC source) as an input to the RM? Isn't this just acting as a low grade 
VCA? (You're probably using the VCA to do something more interesting!) I was 
also wondering about the position of the RM switches, it is counterintuitive 
to have the Y input in the AC position when using an EG (it shouldn't work). 

Note: after having the MOTM 110 for about three months (embarrassingly long) 
when it was first released, I realized that the instructions had the X and Y 
switches swapped around (what?? A mistake in the MOTM manuals?? Impossible!! 
Well, it was the first or second module shipped so it's understandable) -- 
amazingly enough, no one else had mentioned it to Paul before that!! The MOTM 
list didn't yet exist in those days. Check to make sure your switches operate 
as labeled on the panel, you may have an older manual.

Not just another pretty Stooge!
JB
