I think you're right about all of the above - the band-limited
oscillators, envelope, portmanteau etc. It's those bouncy
non-linearities that lend the 303 it's characteristic sound.

I did a bit of research to try and re-create some of that. My envelopes
are control-rate and I didn't really get the non-linear resonance
"memory" effect happening I don't think, so it's not that faithful a
reproduction, but good enough for algorave dance floors it turns out.

Cheers,

Chris.
