How about adding an "offset" voltage amount? Say, from 1-12 so people can
transpose in different keys... would be quite a handy feature. (Unless I'm
misunderstanding exactly how this module would work) I'm not sure what
other synths have something like this, not too many off the top of my
head. Would be cool for realtime performance, too.
