[sdiy] Novation peak NCOs

[Richie Burnett]

An interesting direction Novation are taking with the use of FPGA based NCO oscillators on their new hybrid polysynth. There's a video from Superbooth about it on sonicstate. It uses a sample rate of 24MHz to generate classic analog saw, pulse, tri waves, etc, then feeds them through conventional analog VCF, VCA, etc.

Seems like a bit of a brute force way to crack the old aliasing nut, but I guess it gives them the ability to do some wacky audio rate modulation stuff with reduced aliasing too.
