hi
ive built 2 miltons, just follow the PCB labelling and check thru
this forum for any fixes. there is nothing major to worry about.
both of mine worked straight away, i've never had to resolder
anything on them. The PCBs are the same as those from CGS synth, so
expect the same quality.

the big advantage in building a milton is the bank boards - you
don't have to wire up 64 pots. guess it is a much more robust design
too.

oh yeh the CV input is something else.

Probably the hardest part of building a Milton is getting your hands
on the bloody boards....
