Stepless modulation of the oscillator waveform

Is there a module that can modulate the waveforms of the oscillator continuously? For example RSF Kobol

Actually, most oscillators available for VM are capable of frequency modulation, and some are specifically intended for it.

That's a hardware synth. Have you integrated it into Voltage Modular?

As luck would have it, I'm currently working on a (free) Linear Crossfade module, which can accept two waveforms from a single oscillator and smoothly crossfade between them. It'll even accept an external CV input, so you can use an envelope or LFO to control the morph position. It should be ready in a couple of days.

Do I understand correctly? two oscillators and a crossfade modulated by stuff?

Kobol... From France like me !

The (free) Micro Oscillator Poly from Synthetic Future X R_Ware has an oscillator Wave control which smoothly morphs from SAW - SQUARE - TRIANGLE - SINE. It also has a Wave CV input.

A quick demo of three Linear Crossfade modules performing vector mixing of the Rising Ramp, Pulse, Triangle and Sine wave outputs from a single oscillator:

My Vector Processor available in both mono and poly versions is designed especially to do this. You can get them singly or as part of the Laboratory Bundle. Here's a video on how to use it.

not frequency modulation but waveform modulation

No, it is an example
