I've explained this several times, but let's be clear:
It is correct that the MiniWave is not a VCO - it requires one to
drive it only if you are using it to play back wavetables. It also is
NOT a clocked wavetable device like the DigiSound VCDO or Modcan. The
wavetable position is determined directly by CV, not by advancing the
count on an internal clock. THAT'S why the MiniWave is much more
flexible than a clocked device, and why it can do things like
quantize an input voltage into scales, or perform Serge-like
transform functions.
It is an arbitrary transfer function generator, with the transfer
functions encoded into ROM. No more, no less!
