When I wrote Larry to tell him how great his 320-tracking tip was, in
proper Stooge form :^) he didn't notice that I had sent him an off-list
Email (understandable, given all the private Emails that were flooding the
list this morning :^) ), thus depriving the list of yet another great idea
further on down ...

Is this possible/practical? The waveshaper inherent in the -300 uses a
sawtooth wave as input in order to output a square (pulse) wave, and I'm
not quite sure how it would work the other way around. The -800 EG can be
used as sort of a wave shaper, but that's not really practical AFAIK unless
your range of pitches is pretty severly restricted. Would a true
square-input waveshaper require some sort of phase-locked loop to keep
amplitudes consistent?
But if it can be done, I'll buy one!
