[sdiy] Waveshaper update

[WeAreAs1 at aol.com]

Hello Ian,

Your waveshaper sounds really great (just listening to the little demo 
soundbite), and the idea is very clever.  I'm wondering two things:  What happens if 
you drive it with a hard-synced sawtooth wave?  The sound of the Five Pulser 
is kind of reminiscent of the sound of a swept hardsynced oscillator -- it 
would be interesting to see how the two sounds would interact (that is, if the 5P 
would even accept the synced wave as input.  Also, did you ever think about 
(or try) cascading two LM3914's, to make a Ten Pulser circuit?  I wonder if the 
additional pulses would make for a more detailed, more interesting, or more 
harmonically rich sound?

BTW, I imagine that a properly DC level-shifted triangle would also work well 
as an input wave.  Have you tried that?
