That's a tough one, and don't forget that a chaoscillator may have more
important uses as a control module than an audio one.

But from what little experience I've had, as you sweep the 'frequency,' it
can sound like all sorts of weird, evolving, strangely filtered noise, but
every now and then you hit a setting where a pure but animated tone will
leap out and the noise will disappear. The pure tones can sound very
acoustic. But they aren't evenly spaced enough that you can just "play" them
if you know what I mean.

Hey, if the "Chua" oscillator is patented, I have another idea for a "Chia"
oscillator that, once watered, starts producing fuzzy-sounding timbres...

;)

I don't know if any of the links folks listed have sounds--it's a moot
point 
for me, as my computer has no sound card--so I'm asking what's a
chaoscillator sound like?  Does it sound like a crazy oscillator in that

pitches are pretty distinguishable, or does it sound like a wacky noise 
generator that swoops and dashes all over the damn place?
Or does it sound completely different?
