The LFO gate

The 2.0 version PCB has a LFO gate feature added (similar to the 
Arcadiator). It turns the LFO off completely when there is no input 
signal, so it stays quiet when not playing. The self oscillation from 
turning up the gate pot will also turn on the LFO.

To enable or disable the gate, just turn both dip switches on or off.

If you don't have a DIP switch you can either just link the pads to 
have the gate on at all times, or just leave the pads unlinked for a 
free running LFO (just like the 1.0 version PCB). I suggest leaving 
the pads unlinked unless you are having an issue with ticking. Then
add the links.

Link the upper and lower pads to have the LFO gate engaged at all

times, or just leave it unlinked for a free running LFO.
