EUROPA SHAPESHIFTING SYNTHESIZER178
D Turn the Velo knob to control the Shape Modulation Amount from Keyboard Velocity.
q If you want other modulation sources or scaling options, use the Mod Bus, see “The Modulation Bus section”.
Phase Sync
D Click the Phase Sync button to force the waveform cycle to always start at the same phase (0 degrees).
When active, the sound character will be the same each time you play the same note. When inactive, the sound
character will vary more or less each time you play the same note.
The Modifiers section
The two Modifiers can be used for modifying the currently selected waveform in various ways. The two Modifiers are
identical in functionality and can be used alone or together (or not at all).
Modifier On/Off
D Click the On/Off LED buttons to activate/deactivate the corresponding Modifier.
Modifier selector
D Click the Modifier name box to bring up a menu of the available Modifier types.
The available Modifier types are:
•Faded Sync
This is oscillator sync but with a crossfade at the sync positions. This makes the effect a little smoother (less
bright) than with regular hard sync, see below.
• Hard Sync
Oscillator hard sync is when one oscillator restarts the period of another oscillator, so that they will have the same
base frequency. If you change or modulate the frequency of the synced oscillator you get the characteristic sound
associated with oscillator sync. Control the frequency of the synced oscillator (and thereby the overtone spectrum)
with the Amount knob.
•Invert
This inverts the waveform phase at a variable position within the waveform cycle. Set the phase angle with the
Amount knob.
• Mirror
This mirrors the waveform cycle (in the time line) at a variable position in the waveform cycle. Set the mirroring
position in the waveform cycle with the Amount knob. At Amount=50% the waveform is completely symmetric.
• DownSample
This lets you quantize the waveform in time, i.e. reduce the sample rate. Set the sample rate reduction amount with
the Amount knob.
• Quantize
This lets you truncate the signal’s bit depth, thus making it possible to achieve that noisy, characteristic “8-bit
sound” for example. Set the bit-reduction amount with the Amount knob.
