Ha!

For most applications it's not really any big deal at all, in fact it seems to add even more 
LIFE to the sound that there is yet another layer of modulation.  
If on the otherhand, a specific scientific or calculated approach requires the precision of 
a constant amplitude waveform, then one has available the five non-morphing constant 
amplitude waveform outputs to use, (Sine, Triangle, Pulse/Square, Saw, RevSaw).

An inverter and a DC Coupled VCA or CrossFade might be easily patched-up to act 
as an "Auto Morph Amplitude Compensation"  circuit, but the amplitude thing had yet
to present itself as any real problem to anyone thus far.

There is a ~Universe~ of interesting things to try with a Zeroscillator and anyone who 
already has one will tell you to, 'Take the plunge, You're gonna Love it!'
