When “OSC Mod” = VPM
Control1: Mod Depth (VPM Depth)
[000…127]
Adjusts the depth of VPM.
Control2: Harmonics (Mod Harmonics)
[01…32]
Specifies the frequency of the VPM modulator as a
harmonic multiple of oscillator 1.
4: Control1
CONTROL1
5: Control2
CONTROL2
“Control1” and “Control2” adjust parameters of the se-
lected waveform. The parameters and the available val-
ues will depend on the waveform that is selected.

P06–2: OSC 2
These are the parameters for the oscillator 2 waveform.
1: Wave
WAVE
[Saw, Squre, Tri, Sin]
Selects the waveform for oscillator 2.
This setting will affect the maximum number of
voices.
Saw
Sawtooth wave is suitable for creating a broad range of
typical analog synthesizer sounds such as synth bass
and synth brass.
Squre
Square wave is suitable for electronic sounds or wood-
wind sounds such as clarinet.
Tri
Triangle wave has fewer overtones and a stronger fun-
damental than sawtooth wave or square wave. It is suit-
able for mild bass sounds.
Sin
This is a sine wave.
2: OSC Mod (Oscillator Modulation Type)
OSC MOD
[Off, Ring, Sync, RingSync]
Selects the oscillator modulation type.
Some settings may produce noise.
Off
The sound will be output without any modulation being
applied. You can adjust “Semitone” and “Tune” to pro-
duce a spacious-sounding detune effect. For fuller synth
bass sounds, set the pitch of oscillator 1 and 2 one octave
apart.
Ring
This type of modulation generates frequencies at the
sum and difference of oscillators 1 and 2. You can adjust
“Semitone” and “Tune” to create metallic sounds with
little sense of pitch. This is useful for sound effects.
Sync
This type of modulation synchronizes oscillator 2 to the
phase of oscillator 1, forcibly resetting the phase of oscil-
lator 2.
This is effective on lead synth sounds. Use “Semitone”
and “Tune” to adjust the overtones.
RingSync
This applies Ring and Sync modulation simultaneously.
3: Semitone
SEMITONE
[–24…+24]
Specifies the amount of detuning relative to oscillator 1
in semitone steps. Values of ±12 produce a pitch differ-
ence of one octave, and values of ±24 produce a pitch
difference of two octaves. At a value of 0, the pitch will
be the same as OSC1.
4: Tune
TUNE
[–63…+63]
Specifies the amount of detuning relative to oscillator 1.
Values of ±63 produce a pitch difference of ±2 octaves,
and values of ±48 produce a pitch difference of ±1 oc-
tave. Values near 0 produce fine adjustments in the
pitch.
If “OSC Mod” is set to Sync, adjusting the “Semi-
tone” or “Tune” parameters will change the pitch
of the overtones. The pitch of the fundamental will
not change.
