OSCILLATORS
Fractal Resonance
Fractal resonance is similar to
Res
(see
Wave Selectors
above), but acts on the composite wave.
Multiple cycles of the waveform are ‘packed’ into another wave (specified by the selector) which
serves as a ‘window’. Watch the effect of fractal resonance in BeatZille’s oscilloscope. For
example, here is a square wave packed into a triangular window:
Fractalize
The righthand knob controls the number of cycles (of the original wave) in the window. The
selector to the right specifies the shape of the window.
Off, Saw, Tri
or
Max
roughly correspond
to none, Res1, Res2 and Res3 respectively (see the previous page).
Fractalize modulation
(unlabeled)
The bipolar knob on the left sets the modulation depth of a signal connected to the socket.
Outputs
There are two signal outputs at the bottom of the oscillator. The upper one is always at full volume,
while the lower one can be attenuated and modulated...
Volume
The righthand
Volume
knob controls the nominal level of the lower output, before modulation...
Volume modulation
(unlabeled)
The bipolar knob controls the modulation depth of a signal connected to the socket.
