In the earlier Microwave there was a bug in the
sound generation chip that caused the levels to be
distorted under certain circumstances. We have re-
created this bug, and it can be activated/deactivated
for each sound program. Read more about this on
page 28.
Noise
Volume of the noise generator. The noise generator pro-
duces pink noise and features no other controls. Noise is a
fundamental source for any kind of analog-type percussi-
on. Also wind and other sound effects can be created by
using the noise generator.
Ring Mod (only in Modern Microwave Mode)

Press the
Mode
button to switch between the two
oscillator models: Classic Microwave 1 and Modern
Microwave II/XT. For more information regarding
the Microwave modes please refer to page 31.
Determines the volume of the ring modulation between
both Wave oscillators. From a technical point of view ring
modulation is the multiplication of the waves’ signals. The
result of this operation is a waveform that contains the
sums and the differences of the source frequency compo-
nents. Since the ring modulation generates disharmonic
components, it can be used to add metallic distorted sound
characteristics. This is useful e.g. when generating synth
percussion. Please note that in a complex waveform all
harmonic component behave like interacting sine waves,
resulting in a wide spectral range of the ring modulated
sound.
