If that is what they want to do they should use the right tool, wich would be ring modulator in a synth. I'd expect synths to use audio rate controls at least for some units, even if in almost all cases 1/16 would be enough. If a 'normal' audio app with a volume control (e.g. a mixer) would actually accept a 20kHz sine wave as a control signal then I'd consider it to be of extremely low quality and bad design. The same app would happily add any noise present on its controls to its signals and I wouldn't trust it for any serious work. It's sort the software equivalent of using cheap low-quality analog faders. Ciao, -- FA O tu, che porte, correndo si ?
