<div class="">I'd have to sit down and have a bit of a think about it and do a few calculations, but that's really a lovely idea. Being able to run something like the cheap MCP4922 dual DAC as a u-law "higher res" audio DAC would be a very nice trick to pull
 off.

He uses a dual channel DAC MCP4922. DAC #1 is providing different reference voltages for each octave, which then are used by the DAC #2 which converts the same twelve note data to a spreading CV the higher the octave / refence voltage from DAC#1 respectively
