Arturia MiniBrute User's Manual 23 6 Legal notes
These copies have independent and ever-evolving phase shifts with respect
to each other, and are eventually mixed with the sawtooth signal. This results
in a lively, rich, and bright ensemble effect whose character depends on the
modulation rates of the phase-shifted copies.

dth Modulator (or PWM) takes the square wave and changes the ratio
between the time the waveform is at maximum or minimum. The square
wave corresponds to a 50% PW. The pulse width can be set over a wide
range (50% to 90%) making it possible to create a wide variety of woodwind
instruments.

etalizer takes the basic triangular waveform and “warps/folds” it to create
very complex jagged waveforms that are rich in high harmonics. This results
in “metallic” pitched sounds that are ideal for harpsichord- and clavinet-
type tones. Dynamic modulation (LFO or envelope) of the warp/folding
parameters opens up a realm of clangorous, spring coil-like sounds.
