Tone2 Rayblaster, Reference Manual

Page: 19 / 54

BPM:
When Osc BPM Sync is On the oscillator switches to another type of playback mode
which will behave similar to an arpeggiator.
It plays back the oscillator with an very low frequency which is synced to your host's bpm
rate. This mode is useful especially for beat sliced sounds or to add rhythmic patterns to a
sound.
In this playback mode the Tune knob controls the rhythmic speed of the oscillator. Note
that you might need to tweak Harmonic, Formant and Formant Key Follow a bit to get the
desired results with BPM synced mode.

Volume:
Controls the oscillator volume
Oscillator Pan:
Rayblaster features a real stereo architecture, this allows the synth to have an individual
pan setting for each oscillator.
For example the Vocoder Effect needs the modulator sample panned to left and the
carrier oscillator panned to the right.

Low Cut:
The Low Cut control removes low frequencies from the oscillator's output. Use for
example Low Cut to remove lower frequency rumble from sounds.

Drift:
Drift is a very subtle parameter only audible when both oscillator1 and oscillator2 are used
at the same time.
When Drift is set to a value below 0 the oscillators will apply Oscillator pitch drift similar to
those found on old synthesizers.
A drift value larger than 0 will fine tune oscillator 1 up and oscillator 2 down.
