Re: [Doepfer_a100] Re: starting a modular - Z3000 waveform quality?

Yeah, exactly! I figured Tip Top Audioo VCO sine was NOT buzzy, but
just harmonically rich, there's a huge difference. Buzzy sounds like
"ZZZZZ," harmonically rich sounds like, "VVVVV." Buzzy, BAD,
harmonically rich, ACCEPTABLE.

Holy crap, did you just notice that the letter V looks like a triangle
wave and the letter Z looks like a saw wave?.... sweeet!

And you CAN reduce buzzyness if you dedicate a filter to waveshaping
to reducing the harmonics and if you send it some of the 1v/oct to its
cutoff voltage control so that the filter opens up more as you play
higher notes and closes more if you are playing lower notes.
