What's more, between the single basic waves are interstages. There are many different forms
between the basic waves possible. The Pulse wave can also be modulated. You can read about this
in "Pulse width modulation".
OSCILLATOR SYNCHRONIZATION
As we said before the first oscillator can be synchronized with an auxiliary oscillator. Through this,
new wave forms are created. In this operating mode the frequency of the auxiliary oscillator is
controlled by <WAVE>. To illustrate a view of the waveform, the POLYMORPH displays it as Sync
0-127. Now push [SYNC] in the oscillator section and listen to the results of the waveforms.

COARSE-TUNING OF SYNTHESIZER PART: MENU PAGE 2
On the second menu page you change the coarse tuning of the selected synthesizer part. It will
affect all three oscillators and tune them in semitone steps. If you do not want the coarse tuning of
the parts in semitones, but want to transpose up or down in octaves, you can use <TUNE> on the
surface.

FINE-TUNING OF SYNTHESIZER PART: MENU PAGE 3
On the third menu page you can change the fine-tuning of the selected synthesizer part. It will
affect all three oscillators, not just the first one.

VOLUME OF OSCILLATOR 1: MENU PAGE 4
On this menu page you can change the volume of the first oscillator. It's likely that you will hardly
ever use this control because the function of the <VALUE> is identical to the function of the
<LEVEL-1>, so you can change the volume more quickly on the surface as well.
