My roland 100m VCO runs high enough to drive the Digisound wavetable as it is,
so chances are it won't have problems. As i only run the beast of an analog
sequencer, I have no idea of how it tracks though.

Maybe use the same trick as used in the Digisound VCDO - a 741 with a sluggish
slew rate. The Digisound module (or rather, my version of it) produces waves
that look very good on a CRO. No stepping at all.
