Chapter 10 Modulation eects 208
Ringshifter oscillator parameters
In both of the frequency shifter modes as well as in the ring modulator OSC mode, the internal
sine wave oscillator is used to modulate the amplitude of the input signal.
•
In the frequency shifter modes, the Frequency parameter controls the amount of frequency
shifting, either up or down, applied to the input signal.
•
In the ring modulator OSC mode, the Frequency parameter controls the frequency content, or
timbre, of the resulting eect. This timbre can range from subtle tremolo eects to clangorous
metallic sounds.
Oscillator parameters
•
Frequency control: Rotate to set the frequency of the sine oscillator.
•
Lin(ear) and Exp(onential) buttons: Switch the scaling of the Frequency control:
•
Lin(ear): Linear scaling is even across the entire control range.
•
Exp(onential): Exponential scaling oers extremely small increments around the 0 point,
which is useful for programming slow-moving phasing and tremolo eects.
•
Env(elope) Follow slider and eld: Drag to determine the impact of incoming signal levels on the
oscillator modulation depth.
•
LFO slider and eld: Drag to determine the amount of oscillator modulation by the LFO.
