Ring-Noise Module
This module contains two additional sound
sources that can be blended with the oscillators to
make sounds that are even more interesting.
Ring Modulation (Ring Mod or RM) takes two
audio signals and generates a sound based on the
sum and the dierence of their frequency content.
Depending on the sources the result can be
bell-like and pure, or it can be wiry, robotic, trashy,
and/or pleasingly unnatural.
A noise generator produces random, simulta-
neous frequencies across a broad range. The
dierent colors represent specic frequency
ranges and power levels.
Page Control Parameter Range Description
1 1 Source 1 Osc 1-3, Noise, Mutant 1-4 Selects rst input source
1 2 Source 2 Same as Source 1 Selects second input source
1 3 RM Depth 0-128 in increments of ~0.1 Depth of Ring Modulation
1 4 Ring Vol 0-128 in increments of ~0.1 RM volume [1]
2 1 Noise Type White, Pink, Brown, Red, Blue, Violet, Grey Selects noise type
2 2 Noise Vol 0-128 in increments of ~0.1 Noise volume [2]
