Mutable Instruments ambika Manual

sine: sine wave
A pure and chaste sine wave lost her virginity. At some point she started listening to Nine
Inch Nails.
zsaw: phase-distortion sawtooth with filter sweep
This waveform uses phase distortion to recreate a low-pass filtered sawtooth by
progressively “pinching” the phase of a sine wave. The parameter controls the brightness
of the sound: from a sine wave to a sawtooth, then from a sawtooth to a sawtooth gone
through an ugly transistor amp. Good for dirty bass guitar sounds or clavinets.
lpzsaw, pkzsaw, bpzsaw, hpzsaw: resonant filter sweeps on a sawtooth wave.
This waveform family directly simulates the sound of a sawtooth wave processed by a low-
pass, peaking, band-pass, or high-pass resonant filter. The parameter controls the cutoff
frequency of the filter.
