Steiner-Parker filter
From Yves Usson / YuSynth:
This is my latest take at the Steiner-Parker VCF, in which I tried to improve the design in order to correct some flaws of the original design : scratchy resonance potentiometer, untamed auto-oscillation.
From Timo Rozendal:
Changes from original design:
- no switch but separate buffered input for every mode (LP,HP,BP),
- lowpass input is normalled to highpass and bandpass, so you can e.g. transition smoothly between high and lowpass with the knobs
- 'tweak' resistors are replaced by trimpots
- added decoupling capacitors for IC's
- added a flexible footprint for the matched transistors, I tested it with THAT300, AS394 (Letvian LM394 clone), 2n3904 and BC547 (I don't think the original 2SC1583 will fit)
- provided panel PCB, so no wiring required
The inputs have enough gain to overdrive a normal signal in the filter.
The resonance is still a bit untamed and chaotic and not so useful for melodies (plus it won't self resonate at low frequencies, a known trait of this filter type).

These merchants probably sell this module. Huh?
