roel,
nothing that i can see just from the description - noise to vcf to output -
but possibly it is a matter of "expectations" ( ) - sweeping a filter
through the noise spectrum will pick out things that sound like "tuned noise", a bit
of "pitch sense" being imparted by the vcf`s effect on the noise. there are,
depending on your needs, a range of noise timbres that are different from the
"normal" noise you get from the basic generator although the "blue / red"
controls are also simple filters. but, it may be a case of what you are hearing
isn`t what you expected - you can also get interesting timbres from the
digital noise generator by driving it from a vco.
hope the info helps !
best,
dave
