OSC3ModEnv>Pitch – controls how much the Oscillator 3 pitch is modulated by the Modulation Envelope
(see above)
OSC Osc1 Octave – sets the octave of Oscillator 1 between -1 and +2
OSC Osc2 Octave – sets the octave of Oscillator 2 between -1 and +2
OSC Osc3 Octave – sets the octave of Oscillator 3 between -1 and +2
OSC Poly Mode – sets whether the synth plays monophonically or polyphonically. Choose from the
following options:
Mono – Monophonic (only one note heard at any time)
Mono AG – Monophonic with Auto Glide (automatic portamento when a note is pressed before
the previous one is released)
Poly 1 – Polyphonic 1 allows multiple notes to be played and will stack up repeated presses of
the same note (getting louder and louder)
Poly 2 – Polyphonic 2 allows multiple notes to be played but does not stack up repeated presses
of the same note
OSC Unison – allows multiple voices to be used for each note, e.g. pressing one key makes up to 8 voices
(8 x the signal from the Oscillators) sound rather than just one
OSC Uni Detune – if using the previous Unison option, this page allows the voices to be detuned with
respect to one another. Increase as desired
OSC Vco Drift – sets how much the Oscillators pitch drifts. A good way of emulating old analogue synths
that went out of tune as they heated up
OSC Preglide – applies up to an octave pitch slide up (negative value) or down (positive value) to the note
when a key is pressed. The time taken for the pitch slide is controlled by the OSC Portamento (first page
of this Menu). 127 sets an obvious preglide but at 0 no preglilde will be heard
OSC Porta Mode – sets the type of portamento used. Linear portamento slides between pitches at an
equal rate whereas with exponential, the rate of sweep decreases throughout the duration
OSC Start Phase – allows the precise start point of the oscillator waveform to be determined, useful if
simulating more percussive or plucked sounds for example. Set to OFF, the start point will be random. Set
at 1, the waveform will start at 0 degrees. Each increment will increase the start point by around 3 degrees
OSC 1>2 Sync – allows oscillator 1 and 2 to be synchronised, often creating piercing, metallic effects.
If oscillator 2 has a higher frequency (pitch) then it will take the frequency of oscillator 1 but add interesting
harmonics due to the repeatedly interrupted waveform
