Documentation
My brother works at a graphical company and have scanned the original
"Owner's manual" and the "Circuit diagrams" for me,
and made PDF files. So it is from high quality and ready to print it
out on paper.
The owner's manual is 35 pages and 3,6 MB
The circuit diagrams are 6 pages.

Filters
The 110F has a trasister ladder filter.
This filter was a great invention of Bob Moog.
The circuit is constructed by transisters conected like a ladder.
This circuit is used in lot's of Moog synths, through '60s Moduler
till '80s Memorymoog
and is famous for the fat sound.
