>Everybody: it is *essential* that you run Ad Aware (free 'cleaning

I just ran it for the first time in a few weeks and it found 0 (yes,
zero) nasties. This is probably because I have manual confirmation of
cookies turned on so I've blocked all the ad-trackers.

Ummm *rustles around for diy content*

I've just made a couple of (digital) oscillator algorithms based on
the 2 classes of waveform on the Casio CZ range.

The first class are simple geometric waves run through a sine shaper,
four of which (saw, square, spike and "ramp") sit at the corners of
x-y domain. A third axis gives the sine/shape morph. The fifth CZ
waveform, double sine, results from the saw with the depth into the
shaper double so I've also ended up with more double-sine variants
using the full range of geometric waves.

The second class of waves are a synced sine wave with masking. A
control values multiplies the relative pitch of the sine wave and then
this is multiplied with a mask waveform (saw, tri, "ramp") at the base
pitch. That gives a zero from the sine at phase zero and zero from the
mask at 2 pi to yield smooth waveforms.
