New release from Brotherhood of the Machine coming

   The issue here is not so much building the electronics, but determining the wiring. The bloke who designed it thoughtlessly died and it's impossible to work out what he was on about. On top of that, the PCB has gone through several revisions and as a result, it's all going to be the result of guesswork. 

I hate wiring. Wiring hates me. 

I'm vaguely toying with the idea of building one of these - a Ray Wilson / Music from Outer Space Soundlab Ultimate plus expander. Three problems. Ray has also joined the Choir Invisible, the wiring is an absolutely explosion in a spaghetti factory and calibrating the oscillators on this (so it plays in tune) is about as easy as plaiting fog. This is not a cheap piece of kit to build, so it's all balancing expense versus risk. Sounds most jolly, though.
