Modifying the Sound
2
Press [WAVE] to select a waveform group.
The indicator for the currently selected waveform lights. To select one of the lower
waveforms, get the two indicators above the waveform to light.
fig.011
Here are some examples of waveform groups.
Saw Tooth waveform group
The waveforms of this group contain a fundamental sine wave and its integral
harmonics, at a fixed ratio. This produces a sharp and bright tone.
Square waveform group
The waveforms of this group contain a fundamental sine wave and its odd
numbered harmonics at a fixed ratio.
Triangle waveform group
This waveform group contains two types of sine waves and does not have any strong
harmonics.
Monitor the sound while you choose the preferred waveform group.

Slide [PITCH COARSE] and [PITCH FINE] to set the sound’s pitch.
Slide [PITCH COARSE] to change the pitch extensively. Slide [PITCH FINE] to fine-
tune the pitch.
4
Slide [ENV DEPTH] and [PITCH ENV] to change the pitch over time.
Slide [ENV DEPTH] to adjust the depth of the pitch envelope.
Slide [PITCH ENV/A] to set the time required for the pitch change to reach its
maximum. Slide [PITCH ENV/D] to set the time required for the pitch change to
drop from the maximum to its original state. Both oscillators use [PITCH ENV A/D]
in common.
5
Using [BALANCE], adjust the balance between oscillators 1 and 2.
When [OSC 1] or [OSC 2] is illuminated and its counterpart is blinking (when both
are not off), set the balance between the both.
With this, the waveform upon which your sound is to be based is now ready. Next,
we’ll refine the sound by applying a filter to the waveform.
Each group of waveforms has
various waveform patterns,
which you can select by
pressing [VARIATION] (p. 53).

The selected waveform
See “Determining the Basic
Waveform and Pitch (OSC 1
& 2)” (p. 52) for details on
waveforms.
You can easily shift the octave
up or down by pressing
[OCTAVE] (one octave up or
down) (p. 54).
Using [SUB OSC] (p. 54), you
can also add portions an
octave lower to create a deep
b
ass sound.
You can also synchronize the
oscillator 1 waveform to the
oscillator 2 pitch (p. 55).
