 Oscillator 2
WAVE Same as OSCILLATOR 1; see para-
graph above.
[XP] KEYFOLLOW Same as OSCILLATOR
1; see paragraph above.
SYNC Synchronizes the second oscillator
with the first: The SYNC function forces
Oscillator 2 to interrupt its wave cycle
and restart it at the same time as Oscilla-
tor 1 starts its cycle. The effect of this
measure is that pitch deviations and
intervals are no longer audible as such;
what you hear are tonal modifications:
Repeated interruption of the Oscillator 2
wave cycle generates new tonal spectra
with a great deal of overtone content.
The tone of a given spectrum can be
influenced via the SEMITONE knob,
among other control features.

[XP] FM AMOUNT Controls the fre-
quency modulation intensity of the sec-
ond oscillator by the first. Depending on
the selected FM AMOUNT and the inter-
val between the oscillators, the fre-
quency modulation generates
everything from slightly to radically
enriched spectra. In the Virus you have
the option of combining the two func-
tions called oscillator synchronization
(SYNC) and frequency modulation (FM
AMOUNT) to generate new harmonic
spectra. The characteristics of the fre-
quency modulation can be modified
with the FM Mode parameter (in the
OSCILLATOR EDIT menu). You may also
select an external audio signal and have
Oscillator 2 modulate its frequency.

FILT ENV -> PITCH This parameter deter-
mines the intensity at which the filter
envelope controls the pitch of the sec-
ond oscillator (PITCH OSC 2).
