106 CHAPTER 14
The Parameters
FM AMOUNT Controls the fre-
quency modulation intensity of
the second oscillator by the first.
Depending on the selected FM
AMOUNT and the interval
between the oscillators, the fre-
quency modulation generates
everything from slightly to radi-
cally enriched spectra. In the Virus
you have the option of combining
the two functions called oscillator
synchronization (SYNC) and fre-
quency modulation (FM AMOUNT)
to generate new harmonic spectra.
The characteristics of the fre-
quency modulation can be modi-
fied 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.

WAVE Selects among of 64 spec-
tral waveshapes. This parameter is
identical to WAVE SEL/PW (see
appropriate section) when SHAPE
(see appropriate section) is set to
the left half of its control range.
However, in contrast to WAVE SEL/
PW, WAVE is always available
regardless of the current SHAPE
setting.
