   Well, in fact it IS really working on my desktop :-)

Then I misunderstood your description.  Sorry.  I thought you were
doing some frequency dependent things to adjust the amplitude and dc
offset.

   It has been discussed already. I repeat, it's the SHAPE of the wave, not
   the timbre, since I need it for waveshaping purposes. It is a breakthrough,
   because a PWM pulse wave cannot be waveshaped. 

Yes indeed.

   And talking about VR sonic advantages over PWM, the main one is that it
   keeps constant AC power as the ramp ratio changes, contrary to pulse wave.

I realized this recently.  It's a very nice feature.
