You will notice that the sound is particularly linear and without life.
The sawtooth signal from the first oscillator goes through a filter where the cut-off frequency
is set to the maximum.
This minimalist configuration will let you easily perform some simple experiments with this
basic sound.
Start by changing the waveform of this oscillator to appreciate some of the tones it
can produce.
Change the waveform of oscillator1
Progressively lower the cut-off frequency of the low pass filter. The sound becomes
more and more “damp”.
Lower the cut-off frequency of the low pass filter
Change the range of the oscillator with the “range” knob (as a default it is set to 8’).
In this case, lower it to 16’.
Change the range of oscillator1
Increase the decay time for the filter envelope (“Decay”) to a value somewhere
around 400ms so that the cut-off frequency progressively decays when you press a
key.
You will thus obtain a simple yet efficient bass sound.
