Just having a look for some Serge related material that might help with
the Bananalogue VCS.
First from looking through the modules that are/where available,
http://www.serge-fans.com/
the VCS appears to be half of a Dual
Transient Generator that's been souped up a bit.I have also found the
very good "Serge Guidebook" at
http://www.carbon111.com/serge.html.
This
is a fairly "in depth programming guide".
Isn't the web a wonderful thing

Subject: 1 Re: Bananalogue Serge VCS module
hello david,
today i'll get my serge vcs module, so i can write more
about that tomorrow. it's a bit sad that the mounting holes are
not doepfer-conform. how big are the gaps on your module
there will be other serge reincarnations from bananalogue
in the future. i promised to keep my mouth shut about
the next module until the official announcement.
seth will keep us updated.
best wishes
