I should have been more clear. I wasn't thinking of the bias of the waveshape
output of the module. What I was interested in was that any waveform output
from this module would (ignoring the time controls at the moment) have at
least 1/8 of it's period at zero and that this may typically result in a
characteristic sound for the module. Maybe this isn't a problem, and I rarely
use a sequencer as a waveshaper (to much work to get a good sounding wave),
but if that is one of it's potential uses someone may want to look into this
phenomenon to make sure it isn't a determining factor in whether the
sequencer level knobs are controlled by the level or time controls.

I'm sure that clears up almost as much as it obscures!
