•
The tuning parameter (“FREQUENCY”) allows you to tune the oscillator by semi-tones on
range of 5 octaves.
•
The fine tuning parameter (“FINE”) finely tunes the oscillator upwards by a semi-tone. This
parameter gives a bit more life to your sound when you use several oscillators
simultaneously, due to difference in frequencies between the oscillators.
The waveform
which determines the harmonic richness of the audio signal. On the Jupiter-8V, four
waveforms are available:
•
The
saw tooth
wave presents the richest audio signal of the available waveforms (it
contains all of the harmonics at decreasing volume levels in high frequencies). Its sound is
ideal for brass sounds, percussive bass sounds or rich pad sounds.
•
The
square
wave possesses a more «hollow» sound that the saw tooth (it only contains odd
harmonics) but none the less, its rich sound (notably in low frequencies) can be used for
sub-bass sounds that will come out well in the mix (the square oscillator is often set an
octave below that of the saw tooth), wood sounds (clarinet, if the square signal is a little
filtered), etc.…
