[sdiy] Re: Harmonics

This may have already been mentioned, perhaps with
regard to a JH method.  It occurs to me that triangle 
waves if wavefolded in different ways could do the job.

A triangle of amplitude unity is folded at 2/3 unity.
The output of this is then folded at 1/3 unity.  Would
this not produce a triangle at a frequency 3 times
higher (and 1/3 amplitude) of the input triangle?

A good triangle VCO should have a fairly consistent
amplitude which would be necessary to do this.  Folding
threshholds need to be accurate.

I think that other combinations of successive folding
could yield other integer multiplications as well.
