Doepfer

This idea sound very similar to the Blacet Improbability Drive. The 
upper and lower limits controlled by the "Width" and the center (the 
level which the random voltage fluctuate around) controlled by "level." 
The module spits out, amongst other things, random voltages btween the 
upper and lower limits as set by the width control. Check out the manual 
for better detail:

THis functionality could be easily achieved with the forthcoming window 
comparator (I think Doepfer announced such a module) and a single random 
voltage generator. Right???
