Overshooting circuit ?

This is a simple one. It is called a voltage controlled filter. Since
you are going to operating on control voltages, you might want to build a
voltage controlled low frequency filter. Since you are going to be doing
control signals, I would suggest a low pass filter. I don't know if you
would prefer a 2 pole (12db/oct) or 4 pole (24db/oct), but the 2 pole would
have fewer parts. You will be able to control frequency and the damping (Q)
fairly easily. You can probably modify one of TomG's circuits fairly easily
by just increasing the size of the capacitor in the circuit (generally it is
a .001uF, and you can probably change it to .1uF).
Hope this helps.
