It can be switched from LFO (Low-Frequency Oscillator) mode to a high audio-rate oscillator. Additionally, it can be configured to receive incoming 1V\/OCT or ART signals. A CV output is also available for the Modulation oscillator.<\/p>\n<p>The Principal Oscillator has three audio outputs: a fixed Sine wave, a fixed Square wave and a Final output which provides infinite complex waveforms via the Timbre and Harmonics sections. The Principal Oscillator runs at audio rate but its frequency range can be driven higher or lower with CV. It can also be switched from 1V\/OCT to ART.<\/p>\n<p>Both oscillators have a large Frequency control knob with a range of about 27.5hz which is the lowest A0 pitch on a piano up approximately 8 octaves to about 7040hz or A8 and octave above the highest A on a piano. The frequency figures surrounding the Frequency knob are approximate, not precise. As mentioned before their frequency ranges can be driven higher or lower with CV.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a fine tune knob which covers a range of about an interval of a fifth. Both oscillators have two CV inputs. The one with an attenuverter can add or invert the incoming CV. The one marked Keyboard or ART can toggle to Keyboard mode which use 1V\/OCT, or to ART. Both oscillators can receive Audio FM and the amount of FM will be determined with the attenuator.<\/p>\n<p>In Timbre\/Harmonics section there are 3 wave shapers in that section and the knobs allow us to cross fade between their outputs and the VCO sine wave.<\/p>\n<p>The wave shapers are:<br \/>\nWave Folder<br \/>\nSawtooth<br \/>\nM shape (can be consider as square)<\/p>\n<p>The Middle Modulation Section<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the functions from the top down:<br \/>\nPhase Lock: the audio input jack has an attenuator pot which phase locks the frequency of this oscillator with the frequency of the input signal. If the frequency of the input signal is close to or lower than that of the oscillator it will cause the oscillator to \u201clock\u201d onto the frequency of the input signal. If the input has a higher frequency the oscillator will \u201clock\u201d onto the nearest subharmonic of the input frequency. This can be used to eliminate beating between two oscillators tuned in unison, octaves or harmonics.<br \/>\nIn the Modulation section the switches are internal connections from Modulation oscillator to the Principal oscillator FM, Timbre section and Amplitude modulation.<br \/>\nThe Amplitude switch set to the right has no e\u001dect. When switched to the left it will Amplitude Modulate th ePrincipal oscillator with the Modulation oscillator as determined by the Mod Index setting of the attenuverter.<br \/>\nLikewise the Pitch (Frequency Modulation) switch set to the left engages its modulation.<br \/>\nTimbre Modulation is unique to this oscillator\u2019s design and modulates the Timbre when set to the left.<br \/>\nExperiment with combining these modulation function in conjunction with the Mod Index attenuverter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16171,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[76,236,107,326,109,336],"product_tag":[378],"class_list":{"0":"post-16169","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-eurorack-en","7":"product_cat-in-stock","8":"product_cat-lfo-en","9":"product_cat-new-arrivals","10":"product_cat-vco-en","11":"product_cat-waveshaper-en","12":"product_tag-tiptop-audio-buchla-en","14":"first","15":"instock","16":"taxable","17":"shipping-taxable","18":"purchasable","19":"product-type-simple"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/16169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16169"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=16169"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=16169"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technosynth.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=16169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
