User Manual
The transformer is used to process the output from one or both shape generators. Warp effects act on
the X, Y and Z channels of the shape generators. The rotation and axis tilt controls allow 3D
manipulation of the shapes. The top left section of the screen displays the processed output form the
Transformer. Transform types are listed in Appendix F.
Warp Types
The warp mode allows the X, Y and Z channels from the shape generators to be processed in unique
and interesting ways. By setting the Source control to None, it is possible to generate shapes directly
with the Transformer by using LFOs to drive the various controls. Warp types can be used to change
the frequency response of the shape waveforms, add 3D effects, quantize and distort the images, and so
on.
Axis Tilt and Rotation
The Axis Tilt and Rotation controls allow the output from the Transformer to be spun along different
axis. The rotation control affects rotation of the overall Transformer output. The Axis Tilt control
moves the axis of rotation so it can be seen from different perspectives.
