Pulse Width modulation

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) alters the

basic shape of the waveform by shifting its

internal structure over time, making some

areas narrower and others wider. This is

normally only heard with square waves, but

the Hydrasynth voice engine can apply PWM

to any of its 219 waveforms.

And there’s more! Hydrasynth takes PWM in

entirely new directions by providing not one,

but *three* types of PWM. Each has the same

parameters (with one exception as noted

below), but the results of each type can be

radically different!

PWM parameter Range

Description

Ratio

0.250-64.000 in

varying increments

How many times PWM happens in a single cycle.

Hold [SHIFT] to jump by whole numbers.

Depth

0-128 in

increments of 0.1

Controls harmonic range of PWM

Feedback

0-150%

Feeds the PWM output back into itself

Press Control button 7 to access Warp points.

(See PW-ASM [Warp] section.)

Dry/Wet

0-100%

Mix raw wa PWM result; 100% = pure Mutant

PW-Orig

This is the “vintage” PWM used by many

analog polysynths in the ‘70s and ‘80s: a

waveform is fixed at its center and both of

its edges are moved to compress or expand

its width. The PWM source is often an LFO,

though an Envelope or other sources can yield

excellent results.

PW-Sqeez

This form of Pulse Width modulation grabs the

start and end points of the modulation and

then squeezes them to the right. It might help

to think of this as “time-warping” a waveform:

It makes the oscillator go slow at first and then

go fast, all in the space of a single cycle.

PW-ASM [Warp]

PW-ASM mode divides the selected waveform

into 8 sections that are framed by Warp

points. The values chosen for each Warp point

determine how warped each section of the

waveform can become.
Here’s an example of PW-ASM mode in action.

1. Start in Single mode with an initialized

patch (press [INIT] twice).

2. Access [OSC 1] and select the sine wave.
3. Access [MUTANT 1] and select PW-ASM

mode.

4. Set Mutant 1 Depth to 128.0 and Dry/

Wet to 100%.

5. Press Control button 7 to access Custom

Edit.

6. Hold a note and turn Control knob 2

slowly.

7. Listen and watch the display as Warp2

changes from 0 to 128 and back.

Note how the waveform is affected only

in one specific area (i.e., Warp point 2).

8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 with one or more

Warp points at various values.

9. Also try different settings for Ratio,

Feedback, and Dry/Wet. The sonic

potential is nearly limitless.

PW-ASM mode is actually a form of Frequency

Modulation (FM). It allows you to draw your

own modulator waveform by selecting

different values for each of the 8 Warp points.

Construct a slope, a valley, a mound, jagged

peaks, pseudo-random, etc.; your design will

become an FM source (i.e., the modulator).

Each Warp point can be a destination

in the Mod Matrix, so timbral changes

can be as subtle or wild as you like. For

example, use synced LFOs as mod

sources and various Warp points as

destinations.
