TUNE
The tuning of Oscillator–1 is determined by the master
TUNE knob, located at the top of the CONTROLLERS panel.
RANGE
The RANGE knob selects the fundamental octave for
each oscillator over a five-octave range. A sixth LO setting
brings the pitch down even further, allowing the Oscillator
to be used for other purposes, such as a modulation source.
FREQUENCY
Oscillator–2 and Oscillator–3 are each equipped with a
FREQUENCY knob that can be used to detune the Oscillator
from the pitch of Oscillator–1. Slight amounts of detuning
can create a rich, chorusing effect. Tuning the Oscillators to
an interval (Perfect Fifth above, Perfect Fourth below, etc.)
provides a powerful voice for playing lead passages
or creating chords.
WAVEFORM
Each of the three Oscillators provides six distinct Waveform
shapes. Each waveform has a unique harmonic content that
is based on the number and strength of harmonic overtones
that it contains. These overtones are what impart a particular
timbre to the Oscillator.
TRIANGLE
The Triangle wave has an extremely strong fundamental,
yet contains only odd-numbered harmonics at very low
levels. This makes the Triangle wave an ideal choice for
creating soft, flute-like sounds that have a pure tone with
little overtone activity.
