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

[Florian Anwander]

I was referring to your statement "Modern voltage controlled synth 
modules have non-linearities too", and argue that these non-linearities 
are intentionally generated when the control voltage is generated, or 
that a linear control voltage intentionally leads to a non-linear 
behavior of the receiver via a corresponding circuit on the receiver 
side. However, the relationship between the control voltage and direct 
control is always linear.

Or the other way round: the voltage change is linear but there is a "de-linearizing" circuit in the controlled module. Example: expo-converter in V/Oct. controlled VCOs.
