[sdiy] multiplier questions/experiments AD633

[Tom Wiltshire]

I haven't tried the AD633, but I'd imagine that most of those just sound "ring moddy", in the same way that there are many different ways to generate sounds that are "fm-y".
Also many raw synth waveforms are absolutely loaded with harmonics and will give extremely rich results with these types of functions. Have you tried feeding filtered waveforms in? You might find you can hear the differences better.
