I think the sinewave of the sds3 and sds4 is created with self oscilating
transistorladder (moog) vcf.

OK, then I follow. Since you can choose sinewave as waveform I guess
that is to blame. With very few overtones you often get "glassy"
results. It's almost like a self oscillating filter.

106 on the other hand, is not one of my dream synths. :)
