Operators

When the output of one operator 
is fed to the modulation input 
of a second operator a whole 
spectrum of harmonics is created 
that can form an incredibly diverse 
range of complex waveforms. 
Each operators output can be set 
to another operators input or to 
the audio output, this routing is 
controlled by the Algorithm.

Algorithm

8 different routings of the 4 
Operators. 

Wave

This will fold the OP waveforms 
from smooth Sine to a sharper 
wave for a fuzzier sound.

Feedback

This controls the amount of 
feedback of OP4.
