Tiptop Z3000 Smzrt VCO - Manual (Page 6)

Audio
synthesis
relies
heavily
on
frequency
ratios,
so
using
them
appropriately
can
be
very
helpful
no
matter
what
the
application:
modulate
the
pulse
width
of
another
VCO,
for
frequency
modulation,
modulate
the
cutoff
of
a
filter
or
any
other
parameters
in
a
given
system’s
modules.
The
Z3000’s
Frequency
Mode
makes
it
possible
to
quickly
experiment
with
the
mathematical
side
of
sound
design
and
audio
processing.
The
Music
Note
Mode
allows
for
the
same
techniques
but
from
a
different
perspective.
It
allows
frequency
ratios
to
be
set
easily
but
based
on
the
harmonic
relationships
of
musical
notes
as
defined
by
the
chromatic
scale.
This
feature
allows
those
with
extensive
training
in
music
theory
to
experiment
with
sound
design
and
composition
on
a
modular
synthesizer
by
setting
those
ratios.
Try
experimenting
with
different
sounds
by
setting
multiple
Z3000s
to
different
musical
notes
and
have
them
modulate
one
another.
