MOTM

paul thanks for the info.  

as i was getting into this i got the good weller station to help take
my projects off the breadboard.

i definitely have loads of audio sources just waiting to get filtered
by something.  the flexibility of being able to process audio and be
be a synth is why i find the modular system so appealing.  that and
the hands on thing.  i do most of my producing within the computer and
taking sound out of the computer and running it through alsorts of
things then back into the computer is something i do alot to alter the
tones i am working with.  

to then become a midi controlled synth would i then get a midi-cv
converter then a vco, eg, and vca? 
 
many thanks.
