CEM Curtis Electromusic Oscillator
Parameter Parameter Description Values Description
Main mode, page 1 parameters
Type Type of oscillator CEM Curtis Electromusic oscillator emulation
Wave Waveform generated by the oscillator OFF No waveform is generated
Saw Sawtooth waveform
Tri Triangle waveform
Pulse Pulse waveform, which produces a square wave
when the Shape parameter is 50%. 0% and
100% Shape produce no sound.
Saw+Tri The oscillator generates a sawtooth and a trian-
gle wave simultaneously
Saw+Pulse The oscillator generates a sawtooth and pulse
wave simultaneously
Tri+Pulse The oscillator generates a triangle and pulse
wave simultaneously
S+T+P The oscillator generates a sawtooth, triangle and
pulse wave simultaneously
Shape For waveforms what have variable shapes,
i.e., pulse, morphing, and Jaws types of
waveforms, this parameter determines the
shape of the waveform the oscillator will
generate.
0% to 100% For the CEM Oscillator, only the Pulse waveform
is affected by the Shape parameter. Pulse width
is affected in any of the waveshape combinations
that include the Pulse waveform.
Coarse Parameter controls the pitch of the oscilla-
tor, in semitones
-60 to +60
Fine Fine tuning of the oscillator, in percentage of
one semitone
-100% to 100%

Sync Specifies the master oscillator this oscillator
will be synchronized with
OFF The oscillator is not synced with another oscillator
Gate The oscillator’s waveform phase will be reset with
each note-on event.
Osc 1-Osc 4 The oscillator will be hard synced with the oscil-
lator selected by this parameter. Note that an
oscillator cannot be synchronized to itself.
Glide Exponential glide time for this oscillator 0.0 ms to 20.0
sec
Glide Turns oscillator glide on and off On, Off
