[sdiy] Voltage control of Haible’s Deboo Integrator

[Tom Wiltshire]

Hi Ulfur,

You should definitely have a dig around in the archives for this topic - there have been several discussions on the theme in the past.

The "Polymoog resonator question” thread from last October covers some of this ground too. Also Bernie Hutchins posted links to some excellent Electronotes material on the theme:

One question: if you’ve got a whole bank of filters at different frequencies, why would you want voltage-controlled *tuning*? I can see the point of voltage controlled *amounts* (which is simple - just stick a VCA after each filter, it's a glorified VC-mixer) but I don’t understand what you hope to gain from making the tuning variable. The filter bands are narrow, so they’d soon just overlap.
