Controls for Wave oscillator are:
●
PAD Button:
For any active wave, Discovery Pro will render a new waveform set
using PAD synthesis. It will generate a perfectly looped and beautiful set of sounds,
no matter what the source is.
Since it's a very complex method, it will generate a cache fle in SFZ + 20 WAV fles
(or 1 WAV when ECO mode, displaying a green button) per sound at
Discovery
Pro Data/PADCache
or
Discovery Pro Data/PADCacheEco
folder.
Next time PAD is active, it will read the fle from cache, resulting in fast loading
time.
●

range of semitones. The following features apply:
