Wow, that is some beast! What does the Interpol scanner do?

That's the whole point, right? ;-)

Right now I am thinking Z8000, but I'll look into the Cirklon as well.

With a Doepfer it's quite hard to see any connections on the photo -- you can see that something is plugged into CV2 of the Oscillator -- but where it comes from is hard to tell sometimes..;)

Cool, I'll look into that. Doepfer has some nicely explained examples on their page, too.

Well the main shortcoming right now for me is that I can't change the LFO's speed with CV. And that my trusty old Syntecno TeeBee 303 (wich 4xGate/CV) is not close to the modular. But that will change soon...

What are the dangers? I can blow things up, by using too much power? I thought there would only be no sound... Ah, I guess I need to pay more attention to the minute details...
