Master

The Octopus' Master module is located on the lower right of the

instrument's front panel. The Master module contains three controls: Gain,

Distortion and LoFi Waves. These are described below.

Gain

The Gain control is a final scaling factor that can be used to either boost or

cut the overall output of the instrument.

Distort

The Octopus features a tube-like distortion effect that can be used for

adding warmth to sounds. The effect is controlled using the Distort

(Distortion) control. Turning the control in a clockwise direction adds more

distortion to the signal.

LoFi Waves

The LoFi Waves control is used to set the accuracy of the Octopus' signal

generation. When the LoFi Waves control is switched on the following

effects occur: lower quality waveforms are used for signal generation,

waveform interpolation is less accurate and waveforms are stored in less

memory. This is useful if you're trying to replicate the sounds of an early FM

synthesizer.
