I hate "me too" posts... but what else is there to say?

Ideally I'd like the output to blend from TRI (-5v) to SAW (0v) to PULSE
(+5v), but its more important to me that there is a blend in general than
the range of the blend.

Once again, thanks for letting us give some input, Paul!

I like this one. A single out for the ∗micro∗ VCO should be
sufficient (if it's used as a clock, you'll only need the
PULSE/SQUARE; if it's running a Miniwave, you'll only need the SAW;
if it's used as an audio oscillator, THEN the blend will be useful),
and I find a PWM ∗jack∗ more flexible than a PW knob (you can always
use an external CV source to set a fixed pulse width other than 50%).
