If one of you needs a scope and wants it potentially cheap, keep you
eyes on these. It's opening at $79 and may not move much higher. (OK,
one did go recently for $251, but the guy has no reserve so you never
know...

I got my Hitachi recently from ebay at $100.  It has really been 
useful.  I usually use my ears for sound design, but it is 
nevertheless interesting and helpful to 'see' the music/sound.  I 
really recommend getting a 'scope and learning how to use it!

Absolutely Mike!  A scope provides a visual for DC voltages as well.  
This will allow you to see in real time what your control modules 
(EG, LFO, S/H, UEG) are doing.  With the audio on channel one of the 
scope and the control voltage on channel two, you'll watch the event 
you've patched unfold as you hear it- a GREAT learning tool!  You'll 
be wearing a lab coat and pocket protector in time...

Chub-owner of three 'scopes and not quite right in the head.
