Do you think that this chip would be good enough for tracking pitch of a keyboard (with a pretty steady singnal processed with a comparator) so that VCF's cutoff follows note played?

I'm afraid I ditched the Steiner completely in favor of a state variable 12 dB filter. I left the Buchla driver and it works as far as the cutoff knob is concerned but it hardly reacts to external CV ...

Grant Richter from Wiard gets a ramp wave directly from the capacitor of the 4046 in his WoggleBug. I believe he credits someone else with the idea. Google for the schematic.
