OCILLATOR
Index •
Determines the playback position within the currently selected Wavetable. Each of the 128 available values
represents either a particular wave or the interpolation of the two nearest waves. Modulating the Index of a
wavetable with an LFO or Envelope will often result in a highly-dynamic variation in the timbre of a sound,
impossible via any other means.
This parameter can be modulated via the Mod Matrix and the LFO’s - please select ‘Wavetable 1/2 Index’
from the list of available destinations
Please note that Table 0 (Sine) contains only a sine wave, and as such, the Index parameter will have no ef-
fect on it.
Wavetable •
Selects the current Wavetable - each being a unique collection of different waves from which all manner of
different timbres may be achieved.
Formant Shift •
Use this parameter to sweep the pitch of the formants in the wavetable by +/- 64 semitones. The effect is
reminiscent of oscillator sync, and can be useful for both extreme lead sounds (try broad sweeps!), as well
as subtle timbral variations.
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.
A useful property of the Simple version is that the fundamental frequency can always be heard, no matter
where you set Formant Shift.
This parameter can be modulated via the Mod Matrix and the LFO’s - please select Osc1/2 Formant from
the list of available destinations.
Hint: Use the Simple modes where possible if polyphony is a concern - they eat a lot less DSP power than
the ‘Complex’ modes.
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).
