UNCONDITIONAL 
TUNING 
("AUTO 
TUNE") 
It 
is 
possible 
that, 
after 
warm-up 
and 
stabilization, 
the 
two 
audio 
oscillators 
in 
The 
Source 
may 
not 
be 
nominally 
tuned 
to 
exact 
unison. 
A 
procedure 
to 
correct 
this 
is 
described 
in 
Tuning 
Up, 
on 
page 
3 
. 
This 
procedure 
involves 
unconditional 
access 
to 
oscillator 
2 
and 
should 
be 
explained 
further. 
Simultaneously 
touching 
|8||t|2|g 
and 
|tggU 
Level 
connects 
the 
incremental 
control 
to 
the 
master 
tuning 
input 
for 
Osc 
2. 
Turning 
the 
incremental 
control 
will 
adjust 
the 
tuning 
of 
Osc 
2, 
relative 
to 
Osc 
1, 
without 
changing 
the 
stored 
values 
for 
Osc 
2 
interval 
for 
each 
voice. 
The 
range 
of 
adjustment 
in 
this 
mode 
is 
approximately 
1 
semitone. 
The 
factory 
programs 
are 
voiced 
with 
careful 
attention 
to 
the 
tuning 
of 
Osc 
2. 
Osc 
2 
is 
generally 
tuned 
to 
some 
consonant 
interval 
— 
an 
octave, 
a 
major 
tenth, 
etc. 
These 
interval 
values 
are 
set 
in 
memory 
on 
the 
assumption 
that 
Osc 
1 
and 
Osc 
2 
are 
tuned 
as 
close 
to 
exact 
unison 
as 
possible. 
A 
general 
tuning 
procedure 
is 
described 
in 
the 
Troubleshooting 
Section 
beginning 
on 
page 
53. 
THE 
INCREMENTAL 
CONTROL 
The 
incremental 
control 
is 
the 
most 
important 
single 
control 
on 
The 
Source. 
It 
controls 
the 
settings 
of 
all 
variable 
parameters, 
and 
determines 
the 
rate 
of 
operation 
for 
most 
Level 
2 
functions. 
Its 
operation 
should 
be 
thoroughly 
understood. 
The 
incrementer 
is 
a 
freely-turning 
opto-electronic 
controller. 
An 
optical 
sensor 
notes 
a 
change 
from 
light 
to 
dark, 
which 
is 
generated 
by 
passing 
spaced 
bars 
through 
the sensor 
(as 
shown 
in 
the 
figure 
below). 
There 
are 
120 
opaque 
bars 
on 
the 
transparent 
incrementer, 
allowing 
240 
changes 
of 
status.
