Actually, I reprogrammed a DX7's OS ROM to allow me to operate the
phase-accumulator sine oscillators in this fashion. This was a looooong
time ago, however, and there were a few bugs left in the code when I moved
on to other things. Besides, I was just re-inventing the NED Synclavier
at that point. (Or a cheap version of it). Could probably do this with
an ADSP-2105 these days. (40MIPS DSP..about $8 these days IIRC)
