[sdiy] Unique sounding modules that can't have voltage control?

[Tom Wiltshire]

I thought of FM too, but the history of the Mutable Instruments modules (Braids, Plaits, Clouds, etc etc) shows us that you can easily have both digital algorithms and voltage-control in one module, so I think anything digital is actually pretty *easy* to add voltage control to. After all, it's just a ADC channel feeding in a parameter value.
