THE MIXER (Continued)
NOISE LVL
This sets the level of the NOISE generator. It overdrives above 12 o’clock.
NOISE TONE
This provides tone control for the NOISE generator, emphasizing low
frequencies to the left and higher frequencies to the right.
The output from the MIXER is sent to the Voltage-Controlled Wavefolder (VCW). This diode-transistor
hybrid wavefolder is a complex timbral circuit that creates harmonics by increasing the gain of its
input signal. While most diode-based wavefolders have several hard audible “breakpoints” where
wavefolding begins, the Labyrinth wavefolder uses several novel techniques to smooth/eliminate those
breakpoints and create more continuous wavefolding.
