I think our new VCO is a completely different design compared to Peter's
Complex VCO. Both VCOs will have their own peculiarities and special
features.

The prospective release date is end of 2006/early 2007 provided that no
major changes and modifications have to be made.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
