[sdiy] Better waveforms of our nature

[Donald Tillman]

Hey folks,

For those who follow my articles, here's a new one you might enjoy:

    A Palette of Static Audio Waveforms

It includes a demo.

I got bored with the traditional set of audio VCO waveforms.  And instead of just throwing more waveforms at the situation, I looked into the larger issue of what we want from a waveform and the ways use them.  And things got interesting.

I've built a few VCOs with this waveform set over the last couple years, and I've been doing demos at local synth meetups.

In practice, working with a set of timbres like this is a refreshing change from the usual cliche sounds.
