On page 338 of the September, 1988 BYTE magazine there is an
advertisement for a "waveform synthesizer" card for IBM PC/XT/AT and
compatibles.  It generates user-definable signals with up to 2000
points per envelope.  It costs $795.  You probably don't need this
kind of generality, but you may want to inquire if they have what you
want.

I don't have any connection to them, not even as a customer.
