PAIA?

Nope! The fatman is a pulse (actually, really a square) wave only output.
Which is why it has a pretty inflexible sound unmodded... but you can mod
it with PWM and assumedly, waveshapers to add tri, saw, or whatever you
like. Just be careful, the power supply doesn't look too beefy, you might
want to put most of your mods on another PS. 

BTW, anybody know if the band 'not breathing' uses a fatman? I could swear
I hear it whining away on a track on their new double-cd album.
