This waveshaping instrument uses a ring modulation to produce a
pitched noise instrument. There are separate envelopes for the
distortion index (LINSEG) and the amplitude (f31). 

The waveshaping part of the instrument runs at ifq*.7071,
producing inharmonic partials. As LINSEG drops sharply, so does
the richness of the spectrum. Short after the beginning of the
tone, the spectral bandwidth of the waveshaper has reached zero
and all that is left to hear is a simple sinus.

The instrument is designed for short durations (.2 sec). 

In the low frequency range it sounds quite drum like (first
section), while it gets more pitched in the high frequency range
(second section). (Dodge 1985: pp. 141-142; Vercoe 1993:
