RE: [motm] Partially Mad

JH's interpolating scanner is more suited to this than a sequencer. It
already has the VCAs built in to crossfade from one input to another when
swept by a CV. Also, it has built in normalized DC inputs to the VCAs so
that you can directly synthesize waveforms with arbitrary breakpoints.
