 UPDATE: It is a good idea to buffer the waveform output. Use a 0.1uF ceramic cap after the 100K resistor. The Mod works great and is especially good at high resonance levels, so make sure you include the Resonance Boost Mod also! UPDATE: It is a good idea to buffer the waveform output.

 According to RobbinWhittle,​ all you have to do is short out R47 (10K ohm resistor) by a length of insulated wire.  Some other x0xers tried it out, and found that mounting a 4.7K ParallelResistor along with R47 works better (giving 3197 ohms resistance). ​ This will also affect cutoff range to a degree. According to RobbinWhittle,​ all you have to do is short out R47 (10K ohm resistor) by a length of insulated wire.  Some other x0xers tried it out, and found that mounting a 4.7K ParallelResistor along with R47 works better (giving 3197 ohms resistance). ​ This will also affect cutoff range to a degree.
