The basic design is called a "phase accumulator". It's used in the DX-7 and in the Synergy. A
modified version of it is also used in the Eventide Harmonizers to do the pitch shifting.
Basically, the hardware is an adder and a register. The waveform is in an EPROM. You index
through the EPROM by 'skipping' samples at a *constant rate*. This is different from a MiniWave,
where you are indexing sequentially through the wavetable at a *variable rate*.
