[sdiy] VCO design question

[Kyle Stephens]

On a tangent (of sampling rates and bit depths), I'm idly curious if anyone's played around with one of Korg's new MR recorders, which capture at 1 bit, 5.6MHz. Dynamic range is allegedly from DC to 100kHz.

The approach reminds me of high velocity missiles that deal more damage via shear speed than payload. E=MV^2, so more bang as it were for you buck with  velocity.

Craig Anderton has good things to say about it in any event!
