Heh, I already answered a PWM DAC question on another list, so I'm safe
for today--especially with this talk of strings. :)
I want to use pulse outputs because they're ten times easier to deal
with in a uC, leaving that much more processing time left over to do sexy
things like separate PWM periods per output, frequency-dependent detuning
on demand, etc. Don't need a DAC, either.
