FINE TUNE
Knob to fine tune pitch with the range of plus or minus one half tone.
SHAPE
Switch for the four waveforms:
Sine
Saw Tooth
Variable Pulse
White noise
The white noise waveform brings an interesting complement to the sonic possibilities.
It is very useful to create breath effects (flute tones for example) or special effects like
the sound of wind for example.
SYNC
The synchronization between oscillators allows you to create very
complex waveforms and overtones. When oscillator 2 is synchronized
with oscillator 1, oscillator 2 will restart a new period every time the
first oscillator completes its period, even if oscillator2 has not fully
completed its current cycle (this signifies that it is not tuned to the
same tonality!)
Here are some of the representations of the different waveforms used by the oscillators
of the Jupiter-8V:
