Nave User Manual

Organ sounds often include a fifth, therefore one
oscillator’s semitone parameter must be set to +7.

Lead and Solo sounds might sound interesting when
you set one Oscillator to a fourth (+5 semitones).

When making ring modulated sounds, try to use
dissonant values, e.g. +6 or +8.

Wave

0.0...64.0

This parameter defines the startpoint of the
selected wavetable. A setting of 0 selects
the first wave, the maximum setting sel-
ects the last wave of the wavetable. The
actual wave position will be marked as a
thin red line within the display.

Wave Modulation

diverse functions

Activate this parameter by tapping
on the button. Then select a Wave
modulation source by tapping on
the Modulation list. Amount
determines the amount of modula-
tion that is applied. A common
source for Wave modulation is an
LFO or an envelope.

Travel

-1.00...+1.00

Travel

allows the cyclic moving through a

wavetable. Positive values allow a forward
movement, negative values a backward
movement. Lower values slow down the
movement speed, higher values speed it
up. Cyclic means, that a wavetable starts
automatically again from beginning when the end is
reached. If you don’t wish a cyclic modulation, use the
Wave

parameter modulated with an envelope, a LFO or

any other modulation source.

Use Travel with a value setting of 0.20 to become
an impression of the sound diversity of the wave-
tables.

Clocked / Sync

Here you can set up the synchronisati-
on of the Travel parameter:

There is no synchronisation in
the center setting (off).

If Clocked is activated, Travel is controlled by the
internal tempo of Nave (adjustable with Arpeggiator
Speed

on the FX & Arp menu page) or an inco-
