DAC bit res.

[Duane R Balvage]

    - Another dumb question, guys!


        How many bits of resolution for frequency control would you use?

    8? 10? 12? More? I am *trying* to figure out the necessary accuracy for 

    a polyphonic synth with ANALOG oscillators! My guess is you don't want

    the tuning to drift more than a few cents in either direction. Any

    help in this matter will be GREATLY appreciated!
