yep.... designed thought, re-deisgned, ran out of time...

I had a concept .. 32 sliders, which you 'drew' a waveshape on, another 32 
for an "END" waveform and a unit which let you 'morph' between them, this 
could be controlled by anything, CV.
Now, the interetsing bit..
for eace 'wave shaper' theres was 3 modulation busses, so you could 
increase/decrease the amplidtude of a 'step' by applying a CV to one of the 
busses and adjust the level control..  also a jack socket for eeach step, 
that overrides the 3rd pot and gives a 'insert' at that point..

one problem... 64 sliders.... 192 Pots....
***HUGE*** Panel/Cost..
