Well, I like it so much I've got two. I seriously have zero complaints. And for the record, each waveform I 'draw up' have very different sounds, hardly 'samey'. If anything the additional harmonics add more fuel to the filter fire, so to speak. And I certainly wouldn't consider it gritty at all - well that is unless you use the aharmonic setting on the sync function (which is awesome, btw). Sometimes I run it through a slew limiter to even things out a little, most of the time I don't. And finally, to answer your question, I do not short out the AC coupling cap as I really don't have a problem with DC offset related popping. Keep up the good work, Ian!

Thanks!  Most of the criticism seems to be theoretical.  Folks who have built it all seem to like it a lot.  For LFO work do you short out the AC coupling caps?  No reason not to, they are there just to center the waveform to avoid pops when going through a VCA.
