Yeah, but then you'd have an analogue oscillator with all that ugly  
nasty 'warmth' that those analogue boys keep bleatin' on about,  
saying how wonderfully warm and alive it sounds, whereas clearly DSI  
owners want that cool, clean digital accuracy that gives the cutting  
sharp digital oscillator edge.

No..?

IGMC.
