Introduction - supersaw tutorial - less repetition, use copy/paste instead? #2

Description

I originally written a note in the adoc file, but maybe it's better to make an Issue

Here's the part I'm talking about:

.Section Outline
* Sub Part 1: The oscillator
**  Get the user to navigate to the oscillator view
*** Talk briefly about harmonics and low/high frequency content
*** Get the user to change the shape to saw
**** Talk about waveform shapes
*** Get the user to change the waveform parameter to a classic rising up sawtooth wave
**** Look at the harmonics again
*** Prompt the user to play the sound and make a note about what it sounds like
* Sub Part 2: A Voice
** Prompt the user through the process of creating the same sawtooth on voice 2
*** This should be used to re-enforce the process
** Move to voice parameters
*** Move to frequency parameters
*** Get them to change detune
*** Prompt the user to play
** Ask the user to repeat the process on voice 3 with notes about copy/paste for
    the oscillator

Maybe instead of recreating the whole thing for the third voice, make the user copy/paste the entire 2nd voice and only change detune again? That's a useful technique and I guess 2 times repeating the same thing is enough - I'd be afraid users could get bored and just skip ahead frantically. They still can just read again if they didn't understand it.
