200e

i don't know kai, i'm finding it to work quite well here. i'm not
doing a formal test with reference tones but jumping several octaves
in the 250e sounds good to my ears, provided i tune the 261e
correctly.

nominally, the correct setting is maximum clockwise. but you may find
that that gives too much modulation; this is due to the tolerance of
the pot (of any pot in the world, i might add) and our desire to err
on the safe side (it would be much worse if the maximum modulation
setting gave < 1.2v/oct). the firmware knows to scale to 1.2 v/octave
for some setting. if you're going to make chromatic music with cv
cables (not the most obvious thing to want to do, if you ask me), the
easiest way to tune up the osc's cv input scaling is with a midi test
sequence from the cv outputs of the 225e.

of course, using internal MIDI has the advantage if you want perfect
accuracy over many octaves. this is because the 225e brain gets to
tell the 261e's sinewave generator exactly what to do, without the
buffering, sampling, and scaling that happens along the CV path.

 One Octave is not the double freq.
