Completing the model #2

Description

@jpcima

I've quickly checked the model against Solina schematics, identified major lacking elements.
(answering also @farvardin on completeness of implementation)

In the original, the 4' and 8' sections are known as violin and viola respectively.

  1. missing: brass section (trumpet/horn)
    It's needed to identify what does the formant circuit folllowing the oscillator.
    It has a set of switches which seem to affect a characteristic of a filter.

  2. missing: bass section
    It's cello and contrabass, and it has a more complex circuitry, of which I'm not fully sure how it fits in the model.
    It's made from various parts: low-tone selection, clipper, trigger suppression, bass sustain, and low-pass filter

    Some ltspice sims of formant filters, having switch in horn or trumpet position.

    Horn
    Trumpet

    Peak approximately at 1.445 kHz (horn), and 4.445 kHz (trumpet)

    Attempt at the formant filter in the brass branch

    Note to self:

    The service manual of ARP Omni has a description of circuits in plain english !
    Including an explanation of bass parts.
