Oscillator 1

Waveform

This switches between on of three waveforms for Oscillator 1:

Triangle:

This is a waveform with only odd and not very strong harmonics. It is suitable for flute sounds

and similar.

Sawtooth:

This contains all harmonics and is the richest of the available waveforms. It is suitable for all

sorts of sounds.

Pulse:

This waveform is special in that its harmonic contents can be varied continuously, by adjusting the

Pulse Width, see below. The pulse wave can also be modulated by LFO 1.
This waveform is suitable for many type of sounds, but has a more “hollow” character than the Sawtooth
wave.

For an introduction to waveforms, see page 74.
