"shift register from the 266 with the resistor DAC was added to
the classic VCO and forms the RAND output. It's the same as the
2^n output with n always at six. The 300 series already contains
a Source of Uncertainty built into every Classic VCO (Your
Welcome!)."

That is very, very cool.  I had no idea that the SOU was behind that 
feature, nor really the nature of the RAND output--I sort of assumed 
it was a more traditional noise.  

As soon as I can get my Paypal account worked out (Paypal doesn't 
handle change of email adresses well, IMO--especially anoying when 
your service provider gets bought out and changes it on you) I'll be 
adding a Noise Ring to my frac rack setup.  

I love reading about the history of this design--and designs in 
general.  The short article you wrote on the Envelooper module's 
design taught me so much about the history and use of EGs in a 
modular system, and I still refer to it when I need to.  

I'd really apreciate reading about how some of your other designs 
got started.  I know that the Omni Filter and Classic VCO are 
written up that way, but while the Waveform City/MiniWave obviously 
has it's genesis in the Digitech DCVCO, it would be interesting to 
hear the story in greater detail.

Thanks (anxiously awaiting Paypal clearance...:).
