A good reason would be to apply algorithmic (I don't mean FM) processes on the level of sound generation using oscillators and the like (think of Gendy or Vosim).

I have a ppc only external, programmed by a friend, that takes a frequency input like a phasor, determining the slope, but samples upon wrap on the right input a value that it use as the next wrap point. In short, where phasor always wraps at zero, this object will refresh its wrap point every cycle. There are two outlets, one giving the incrementing signal, the second the wrap point as a signal. Dividing the first by the second will result in a ramp from zero to one, of which the speed can be change sample accurate. Mattijs, I think you use windows, right? I might have the code somewhere, it is of any use, let me know.
