Wave The selected wave from oscillator1
Noise The Noise signal
In L, In L+R, In R One or both of the Audio inputs (see rear panel)
The movement within a wavetable will still be recognisable as you sweep through the Index points, but you
will notice a very different character to the same table as played by the standard Wavetable oscillator.
In contrast to the Simple version, the fundamental frequency is shifted along with the rest of the wave, result-
ing in a more dramatic effect.
This parameter can be modulated via the Mod Matrix and the LFO’s - please select Osc1/2 Formant from
the list of available destinations.
¦ Formant Spread
By adjusting the spread of the formants, a very complex effect is achieved - something like an unholy alli-
ance between a sub-oscillator and a sync-sweep could be one way of describing it, although the depth of
the effect is highly-dependent on the current value of Formant Shift.
For an effective demonstration, try sweeping from 0 (default) through to 127, with Formant Shift set at 12
o’clock position!
This parameter can be modulated via the Mod Matrix and the LFO’s - please select Osc1/2 Spread from the
list of available destinations.
¦ Local Detune
Use this parameter to achieve the effect of two detuned oscillators an octave apart - note that this param-
eter is most effective when Formant Spread is set to a relatively low value.
¦ Interpolation
Use this parameter to determine how smoothly the different waves are blended you sweep the index param-
eter.
¦ Semitone
-48 to +48 semitones: Adjust the pitch of oscillator1 in semitones. Modulation destination “Osc1Pitch“.
¦ Key Follow
-64 to +31, Norm, +33 to +63: How much the pitch of oscillator1 follows the keyboard (i.e. MIDI note
number). Press both VALUE buttons at the same time for normal tuning (Norm).
¦ Balance
-64 to +63: Adjusts the relative levels of oscillator1 and oscillator2 (including FM), whereby -64 is oscilla-
tor1 only and +63 is oscillator2 only. Note that this parameter is mirrored in the oscillator2 menu.
Hint: Use the ‘Simple’ modes where possible if polyphony is a concern - they eat a lot less DSP power than
the ‘Complex’ modes!
