You mean repeating a stored waveform? An arbitrary wqaveform generator?

You could do it with an analog sequencer. Just use audio as clock.
This means frequency division, of course.
Or you could fire a series of one shots, each with it's own weighting
pot. The one shots could be made to track the vco more or less.
