OSC SYNC
(Oscillator sync)
This oscillator type forcibly resets the phase of the oscillator 2
waveform (the “slave”) at the frequency of oscillator 1 (the
“master”), producing new overtones.
ModPitch = 0
WAVE = Tri
ModPitch = 8
ModPitch = 47

WAVE .......................................... Saw, Pulse, Tri, Sin
Selects the basic waveform of oscillator 2.
OSC EDIT1: WaveForm .................................0...127
Continuously modifies the shape of the oscillator 2 wave-
form. The change in waveform shape is exactly the same
as for the Wave Form oscillator type (described earlier).
OSC EDIT2: ModPitch ....................................0...127
Adjusts the pitch of oscillator 2 (the slave waveform). A
value of 31 is one octave higher, 63 is two octaves higher,
95 is three octaves higher, and 127 is four octaves higher.
CROSS MOD
(Cross modulation)
This oscillator type uses the output waveform of oscillator 2 (the
“modulator”) to modulate the frequency of oscillator 1 (the
“carrier”), producing complex overtones.

WAVE ......................................................................
twenty different combinations of oscillator 1 (Saw, Squ,
Tri, Sin) + oscillator 2 (Saw, Squ, Tri, Sin, Ns [=Noise])
OSC EDIT1: ModDepth ..................................0...127
Adjusts the depth of cross modulation.
OSC EDIT2: ModPitch ................................ -63...+63
Adjusts the pitch of oscillator 2 (the modulator). A value
of
±
63 creates a pitch difference of 2 octaves, and a value
of 47 creates a pitch difference of
±
1 octave. With a value
of 0, the pitch is the same as oscillator 1.
VPM OSC
(VPM oscillator)
The VPM (Variable Phase Modulation) oscillator type uses the
output waveform of oscillator 2 (the “modulator”) to modu-
late the phase of oscillator 1 (the “carrier”), producing metal-
lic-sounding overtones.

WAVE ............................................ Saw, Squ, Tri, Sin
Selects the basic waveform of oscillator 1 (the carrier).
OSC EDIT1: ModDepth ..................................0...127
Adjusts the depth of the VPM effect.
OSC Edit2: ModHarm......................... 00.25...32.00
Specifies the pitch of oscillator 2 (the modulator) as a har-
monic multiple of oscillator 1.
WS
(Wave shaping)
Wave shaping creates complex waveforms by mixing two os-
cillators and then passing the result through a wave shaper (non-
linear transformation).

WAVE .................................................. Type1, Type2

OSC EDIT1: WavShape .................................0...127
Adjusts the depth of the wave shaping effect.
OSC EDIT2: OSC2Ptch .............................. -63...+63
Adjusts the pitch of oscillator 2. A value of
±
63 creates a
pitch difference of
±
2 octaves, and a value of 47 creates a
pitch difference of
±
1 octave. With a value of 0, the pitch
is the same as oscillator 1.
