The DIY Passive RC Filter:
► 100k Potentiometer

► The 3.5mm jacks are connected to each other on the ground pin, and that's where one of the capacitor legs goes to as well.

► Filter FM patch correction:
In the Filter FM patch in the video I say you should patch MULT 1 into the LFO RATE INPUT (which is correct) but, since it was late in the session I guess?... I plugged MULT 1 into the LFO OUTPUT, and you shouldn't really do that... though apparently, Mavis didn't explode. It still sounds good which is why I didn't notice it, but you should do as I say and not as I do... thanks ‪@wavrekordz‬ for pointing this out
