Waves-Oscillator (WAVES-OSC) 0...63
Waves-Oscillator controls the starting point of the Wavetable selected in the
DIGITAL menu. If you want to create a sound that travels through the Wavetable,
then you should at least roughly set the starting point in the desired Wavetable area.
Keep in mind, that the last four Waves 60 to 63 are the same in all Wavetables, so
that unwanted “jumps” can occur during the pass. This method helps you to find the
basic character of the sound, to which a modulation (e.g. caused by the LFO, the
Envelope or by Key tracking) is assigned.
WAVES-SUB-Oscillator (WAVES-SUB) 0...63
Depending on the setting of the SUB-WAVES parameter in the DIGITAL menu, the
WAVES-SUB parameter selects a certain waveform. Please find more information in
the section “Sub Waves”.
w
Within sound-memory, the current and Upper Wavetables are arranged in the
form of a sequential ring. If you thus create a modulation, that exceeds the 63rd
Wave, then the corresponding Waves of the Upper Wavetable become au-
dible. The same goes for modulations below 0. You simply use the parameter
UPPER WAVES to replace the Wavetables of the oscillator. The SUB-WAVES
parameter controls whether the sub oscillator also uses these replaced Wave-
tables.
Modifiers Control
This is where you control the impact that both ADSR Envelo-
pes have on the respective modulation target.
ENV 1 VCF 0...63
This controls how ADSR Envelope 1 influences the filter frequency. The higher you
set this value, the more the filter frequency rises with the modulation deflection of
the Envelope. Experiment with Cutoff and this control to find out what they do. Note
