SH-3A panel, board #2 detail
Here you can see a Moog-style transistor ladder VCF. See the paired transistors (black) with a greencap and resistor: one step in the ladder. Material on the web says that the SH-3 had a Moog filter, but that it was removed for the SH-3A. So what is it doing here? The schematics floating around the web have this design too. Even the cap and resistor values are the same as some of the Moog schematics floating around. The only difference I see is that this filter just feeds into the + and - of a 741 (in a can!) while the Moog designs use differential pairs etc. Anyway, it certainly isn't a diode ladder design or whatever....

Original Blacet plate on right, frac ear modified on machine shop mill on left. Frac synth space is maximized by cramming utility modules into the frac ears.
