Oscillator Extras
START PHASE Knob
When synthesising percussive or plucked type sounds, there is a lot of detailed waveform
information at the beginning of the sound. It is often useful to have the oscillator wave start in
exactly the same place every time a key is pressed.
The start phase option allows the precise starting point of the oscillator wave to be determined.
At a setting of 0, the wave will start at zero degrees. Each increment on the control shifts the
start point of the wave approximately 24 degrees. The wave will start at a random phase when
set to OFF.
UNI VOICES Knob
Unison allows more than one voice to be used for each note played on the keyboard. This
effect is useful when a very thick sound is required. The V-Station allows up to eight voices to
sound layered one on top of another when just a single note is played.
To listen to the effect, play a series of notes whilst gradually increasing this control and listen to
the sound. It will become thicker sounding. Increasing the number of notes to a maximum of 8
will result in very dense sounding textures.
Note: As more voices are assigned to Unison, the available polyphony will reduce accordingly.
For example, using 8 voices in Unison mode will result in just one note of polyphony being
available!
