1 modulation section (WHEEL MOD) dedicated to the LFO

The oscillators (« VCO 1 et 2 »)
There are two oscillators.
The oscillator controls the basic frequencies and timbres of the Jupiter-8V with the frequency
settings, choice of waveform, and the pulse width associated to the square waveform. These
settings are made either with various knobs (static settings) or by the means of the modulation
sections. These can be activated in the «LFO-MODULATION » section (monophonic modulation by
the LFO) or the « CROSS MOD » (polyphonic modulation using the frequency of oscillator 2 against
oscillator 1).
The oscillators can be tuned and edited separately. They allow selection of 4 waveforms on each
oscillator. The two oscillators have some different waveforms. (E.g. OSC1: triangle, square / OSC2:
white noise, Sine) These waveforms can be used simultaneously. Whether tuned separately or when
using several mixed waveforms, the two oscillators allow you to quickly obtain a rich variety of
sounds.
Two Oscillators
6.1.1.1
VCO 1
RANGE
: Switch of the frequency range for VCO 1 ("RANGE"), on four octaves 16', 8', 4', 2'
(unities are indicated in feet, referring to the sizes of the pipes of church organs)
WAVE
: Switch for the four waveforms :
•
Triangle
•
Saw Tooth
•
Variable Pulse
•
Square
PW
: knob to set the impulse width of the square signal (only active when the variable pulse
is selected)
CROSS MOD
: knob to set the frequency rate of the modulation between the frequencies of VCO 2
with the ones of the VCO 1
6.1.1.2
VCO 2
RANGE
: Switch of the frequency range for VCO 2 ("RANGE"), on four octaves 16', 8', 4', 2'
(unities are indicated in feet, referring to the sizes of the pipes of church organs)
