A Short Overview
The Iridium Keyboard consists of numerous sound-
shaping components.
Note that Iridium Keyboard consists of two different types
of components for sound generation and sound shaping:
•
Sound synthesis: Oscillator models, Filters, Digital
Former, Amplifier, Effects. These modules represent
the audio signal flow. Sound generation actually occurs
within the oscillators. They can produce different sha-
pes based on the selected model – e.g. classic wave-
forms such as square, sawtooth, triangle, and sine, or
wavetables and samples. The dual filters shape the
sound by amplifying (boosting) or attenuating (dam-
pening) certain frequencies. Digital Former delivers
additional filter models and effects for sound proces-
sing. The Amplifier and the Effects are located at the
end of the signal chain. They determine the overall vo-
lume of the signal and add up to five effects like chorus,
flanger, delay, and reverb, etc.

•
Modulators: LFOs, Envelopes, Komplex Modulator,
Modulation Matrix. These modules are called Modula
tors. The Modulators are designed to manipulate or
modulate the sound-generating components to add
dynamics to sounds. The Low-frequency Oscillators
(LFOs) are designed for periodic or recurring modula-
tions while Envelopes are normally used for modulati-
ons that only occur once on each note. These genera-
tors are assigned to parameters through the Modulati-
on Matrix and influence these parameters to alter a
sound.
