The LEVEL parameters on the SYN2 page controls the amount of modulation from the A and B opera-
tors. For more information, please see “11.4.8 LEV B” on page 41. The LEVEL parameter for B is macro
mapped to both operator B1 and B2 and control their modulation amount as per this graph:

A.6 HARMONICS
The default output from an operator is a sine wave, but you can use the HARM parameter to add upper
partials to some of the operators’ sine waves to create more harmonically rich waveforms. The HARM pa-
rameter is bipolar. Negative parameter values change the harmonics of operator C, while positive parameter
values change the harmonics of operators A and B1.

Harm +
When changing harmonics, intermediate values interpolates between the current and the next harmonic.
This interpolation works much like in wavetable synthesis, sweeping between the harmonics, smoothly
transitioning from one timbre to another. For more information, please see “11.3.5 HARM” on page 40.
The harmonic series for the operators looks like this:
