Oscillator Specic Control And Modulation Parameters:
Several KVA oscillators also have their own modulation parameters that must be accessed
to control the oscillator’s intended function. Below is a list of these oscillators and their
distinctive parameters, grouped by block size. ough the following parameters could be left
at one setting, utilizing one of the DSPCTL or DSPMOD techniques described in the above
examples will expose a wider range of expression from each oscillator.
1 Block:
LPNOIZ
A noise generator combined with a low pass lter. Use the Noiz Frq parameter to control the
cut o frequency of the lter.
NOISE
A simple noise generator. Use the Noise parameter to control the noise initial amplitude.
SW + SHP (Sawtooth + Shaper)
is oscillator is capable of basic FM Synthesis. Its distinctive parameter is Pch Coar. is
oscillator must come after the sound source in an algorithm (either keymap or oscillator)
in order to hear the eect of Pch Coar, which can radically change whatever the oscillator
receives as an input. Works well placed after a Sine source.
SINE+ [Aliased (not recommended)]
Same as 2 block version, but without the Sine+Am parameter.
SAW+ [Aliased (not recommended)]
A saw oscillator that can add an input signal to its output.
NOISE+ [Aliased (not recommended)]
A noise oscillator that can add an input signal to its output.
2 Block:
SINE+
A sine oscillator that can add an input signal to its output. e Sin+ Pch and Sine+ Am
parameters aect the pitch and amplitude of the sine waveform without aecting the pitch of
the input source.
