LinPlug Spectral - Manual (Page 16)

Right of the A, B and Mix buttons is the Load menu to load a waveform
from the factory library (or one you saved into the library).
Note: saving of waveforms happens from the tools menu of the Spectral
Editor.
Right of the display you find a number of controls to further adjust the
Oscillator.
The Wave dial sets the wave mix of waveform A and B.
This parameter can be modulated using the Mod Matrix (Osc Wave Mix) .
The Sym dial adjusts the symmetry of the mixed waveform, you may know
this from Pulse waves as “Pulse-Width” but in Spectral you can adjust the
symmetry of each waveform. The waveform display is reflecting the
Loading Waveforms
By clicking the Load button below the waveform display most of
Spectral's user interface will turn into a browser window. It shows the
factory and user saved waveforms.
Loading and saving waveforms is a bit special because Spectral
actually uses two waveforms in one oscillator. And often the
combination of the two is what matters for a certain sound
(especially when dynamically modulating the wave mix).
Thus Spectral always stores both waveforms and their mix relation
when you save them.
When loading you might want to load either both or only one of
them, depending on what you currently are doing:
If you are working on a sound and look for a new waveform for the
whole oscillator you would load both waveforms (make sure the
“Mix” button in the browser is lit!).
If you however work on only one of the two waveforms of an
oscillator and only want to replace one of them, make sure to
1. select either A or B as where to load from (usually the name of the
waveforms indicates what you can expect to load) and
2. make sure the “Load Into” switch is at the waveform you want the
one you load to go into. Spectral automatically set it to the one you
are just editing (in case you have the Spectral Editor open).
