Very simple synth with powerful sound, thanks to MV

Inspired by and GUI patterned after the Crumar Trilogy, this utilizes many components by Martin.
The Trilogy was one of those 'combo' synths from the late days of analog polys before the DX7 took over. It had three sections, each with their own vol control: Organ, Strings and Synth. Only the two-osc Synth was routed through the Filter.
The Organ section uses MV's Spread Partials oscillator, the String Ensemble is, of course, the String Orch from a few months ago, and of course all the Filters are his. Also the swirly stereo effect in the Organ section.
Only reason I didn't use Martin's Organ schematic from a bit ago, is I wanted to be able to seamlessly morph the Organ's waveforms from pure sine to the Trilogy's square waves. Hammonds' waves were not-quite-sine and had very audible additional harmonics. Martin's organ sounded a bit too 'soft' to me because it produced pure sines only.
The Delay and Slope functions in the Modulation section are Spogg's work.
