• The Ultrasaw builds two phase-shifted copies of the basic sawtooth signal.
These copies have independent and ever-evolving phase shifts with respect
to each other, and are eventually mixed with the sawtooth signal. This results
in a lively, rich, and bright ensemble effect whose character depends on the
modulation rates of the phase-shifted copies.
• The Pulse Width Modulator (or PWM) takes the square wave and changes
the ratio between the time the waveform is at maximum or minimum. The
square wave corresponds to a 50% PW. The pulse width can be set over a
wide range (50% to 90%) making it possible to create a wide variety of
woodwind instruments.
• The Metalizer takes the basic triangular waveform and “warps/folds” it to
create very complex jagged waveforms that are rich in high harmonics. This
results in “metallic” pitched sounds that are ideal for harpsichord- and
clavinet-type tones. Dynamic modulation (LFO or envelope) of the
warp/folding parameters opens up a realm of clangorous, spring coil-like
sounds.
