Hi David,

Essential to me since I'm building synths with microcontroller control
and patch memory. Besides that, an interesting effect that can be
obtained with VC resonance is to modulate the cutoff by a fast
decaying envelope, and alternate with a LFO or step sequencer between
full self oscillation and no self-oscillation - at full
self-oscillation this will sound like a kick drum, at no
self-oscillation the original oscillators' sound will be distinctly
heard through:

Another benefit of VC resonance - we can use the same VC source to
couple resonance and the gain of a secondary VCA, to get an adjustable
"loudness" compensation curves when cranking up the resonance.
