overview
base tone spawns a new pair of ripple
elements. The ripples’ density and decay
rate may be adjusted over a wide range.
Additionally, the elements may be warped
so that their density accelerates or decel-
erates within the cycle. Finally, their basic
waveform may be switched from sine-like
to square-like for additional richness.
Despite the seemingly divergent fre-
quencies present in the signal, it re-
mains strictly harmonic due to how all
elements are waveshaped from the core
tone and therefore phase coherent. Thus,

the traditional set of primary waves and
wavetables, hence the name.

direct access to all parameters in a one-
knob-per-function arrangement. The big,
central pitch knob

offers continuous
pitch control in the range of two octaves,
while the rotary octave switch above it

offers eight additional octaves with
the lowest lo position referring to sub-
sonic frequencies. The pitch frequency is
also controlled via the pitch cv v/oct
input

, which accepts voltages from
–10V to +10V. However, the usable range
of voltages depends on the position of the
manual controls. The entire frequency
