You say *not using more complicated* why cant he use a normal
DCO either? Sure he can. Roland did and so DSI!

If a update of a shape CV comes just behind a NCO frequency update 
and as long as Mux chain are fast i dont se why not? The whole hoopla
is linear but a LUT will do i suppose. Direct AM of integrator is no
problem, have tested and that counts as audio mod .
