Level
0...127
Available for Oscillator 1 and 2 only.
Sub Oscillator Level
determines the volume of the Suboscillator creating a
Square Waveform. A setting of 0 corresponds to no
volume. Please note that the loudness of the Suboscillator
also depends on the volume of the main oscillator
Sync (only for Osc 2)
off / on
Enables or disables oscillator synchronization. When
enabled, Oscillator 2 acts as a slave that is controlled by
Oscillator 3, the master. Each time Oscillator 3 starts a
new cycle, it sends a trigger signal to Oscillator 2, forcing
it to restart its waveform cycle, too. As a result, interesting
sound effects may be generated, especially when both
oscillators are operating at different pitch settings. Using
additional pitch modulation by envelopes, LFO, or Pitch
bend will lend further movement to sync sounds. The
following picture illustrates the principle of oscillator
synchronization in a simplified way:
[
Use Sync for Lead or Solo sounds. Set Oscillator 2
to play one octave and 7 semitones higher, apply an
envelope to its pitch with positive amount and you
get a screaming sync sound.
[
Sync
can also be very interesting on arpeggio
sounds. Apply a slow clocked LFO to Oscillator 2
pitch and the arpeggio starts to move.
Osc Pitch Mod Source
see Table “Modulation
Sources”
Selects the source of the pitch modulation for all
oscillators. A common source for pitch modulation is an
LFO whose strength is controlled by the modwheel or
aftertouch.
