26 Oscillators
Dave Smith Instruments
Key Follow: Off, On—When Key Follow is on, the oscillator tracks the
keyboard or note data received via MIDI. When off, the oscillator plays
at its base frequency setting, though the pitch may be affected by modu-
lation from other sources.

Shape: Sine, Sawtooth, Pulse, Super Saw —This selects the waveshape
generated by the oscillator. You can also turn the sound of the oscillator
off by selecting no waveshape.
Shape Mod: -64…+63 – Changes the “pulse” width of the selected
waveform, which modies its harmonic content and timbre. To generate a
square wave when pulse is selected as the waveform, set this parameter to 0.

Oscillator pulse width (square wave)
Sync: Off, On—Turns Oscillator 1 hard sync on. Sync forces Oscillator 1
(the slave) to restart its cycle every time Oscillator 2 (the master) starts
a cycle. This provides a way to create more complex, harmonically rich
shapes from simple waveforms—especially when the frequency of Oscil-
lator 1 is set to a different interval than Oscillator 2.
