Re: [motm] Tuning Module, and "Too Much Stability"

 I was thinking a unit with two "selector"
knobs, one that's maybe -12 to +12 1/2 steps,
and another that's -6 to +2 octaves.

Been there, done that...

Too Much Stability?
Anyway, I'm not saying that I prefer DCOs at all.
I just wonder if having a super-stable VCO takes
a bit of the warmth out of a modular synth?

--LH--
I say no.  if there is to be any inaccuracy I would rather add it in.
remember, a VCO cannot be too accurate / stable.  You can always make a
great one less great.  But, you can never make a shitty one as good as you
want it to me.

From: <sucrosemusic@...>
Regardless of the goofiness factor, I think an accurate, selector-
type module to reside next to the VCO would be neat.  It could even
have two identical sections.  All it would need (for a basic unit)
would be 4 selectors, 2 CV ins and 2 CV outs.

--LH--
So how many do you want to buy?
