Chiptune Wavetable Oscillator and 12-bit Sampler

WaveBoy is an 8HP Eurorack module that implements the behavior of the 4-bit wave channel on the Nintendo GameBoy, specifically the behavior found in the LSDJ (one of the GameBoy music trackers). It also includes a Noise mode that has LFSR and a number of bitwise noise algorithms. A 12-bit Sampler is also included that supports basic loops and bitcrushing. The 2nd output can be used for step sequencing, as an alternate audio output (for detuned or sub-out), or as an LFO.

A realtime bit/sample crusher and envelope follower are also available.

At the core of WaveBoy is a variable clocked DAC meaning the sample rate of the DAC is determined by the desired pitch. The result is a fairly unique sound, especially in Wave mode.
