[sdiy] Moog wander

Sure its wise to gather as much data as possible. What I'm saying is 
that we need to correlate any of the findings afterwards to the 
perceptional quality we describe as "fattness". Only then we can be sure 
that whatever you may find is really the cause for this.
One criticism that applies to the whole Kevin vs. Kenneth debate is that 
AFAIK neither did correlate the findings to the actual perceptional 
qualtity. It could well be that there are varying degrees of µs scale 
jitter in VCOs, but that they are inaudible and something else is the 
cause. In which case the whole debate is "much ado about nothing".
(IMO this is very likely so.) Likewise it might be for the wander aspect 
of it. Only if an eventual hypothesis passes a test afterwards we can be 
sure.

Besides, is "fattness" really the same as "warmth", I don't think so.

Cheers,
  René
