Three Big Questions:

1) Is it stable like the 320?? It makes a big difference in what features
would be useful. Considering the range of the 310, you are already selling
a "uLFO"

2) Does the circuitry behind it have to fit on a 800-sized PCB??

3) Is it 1V/oct or linear?? That's not a UI decision. If it's linear,
having two CV inputs might be superfluous.

FWIW, I'm more interested in helping create a better product than winning a
contest. If I can also antagonize Paul in the process, well that's just
gravy ;)

If we can electrically design it do we get bonus points??
