[sdiy] Novation peak NCOs

[Mrs Paula Anne Maddox]

I had lots of customers who said 002 sounded more analogue than 008, which was odd, but that's people's ears for you.

It's because the sampling rate is 96MHz, or about 2000 times faster than
your typical digital oscillator, so there is no digital character to the
output.  At least, that's what I got out of it.  What I know about digital
oscillators could be explained in about 96 microseconds.
