In some hardware synths (like in my Synton Syrinx & Doepfer A100), it 
is possible to sync the oscillators. There are 2 techniques: hard and 
soft sync. The main idea is to retrig the slave (i.e. synced) 
oscillator each time the master oscillator finished one cycle.

There are some explanations here:
