MIXER
This is the section where the outputs of OSCILLATOR 1, 2, 3 and NOISE are established and mixed in relation to one
another. There is also a FEEDBACK knob which adjusts how much of the SE-02 output is returned to the input of the
FILTER section.
OSC-1, OSC-2, & OSC-3
Adjust the output level of each oscillator, and mix them together. For a pure noise output first turn up the noise
level, and then turn down the knobs for OSC 1, 2 and 3. Level mixing can help to shape and create interesting
sounds as a practice on its own. Blending a SQUARE wave into two SAWTOOTH waves can have an interesting
result in and of itself with and without additional modulation.
FEEDBACK
Adjusts the amount of the SE-02’s output sent back to filter input (except for the DELAY) This change the nature
of the sound radically.
Experiment: For a close look at how FEEDBACK shapes sound, try turning off the volume of OSC 2 and OSC 3
and listen only to OSC 1. Now increase the FEEDBACK level and listen to what happens to the sound.
NOISE
Adjust the volume of the noise oscillator. Noise is a wonderful addition to the texture of a sound.
Experiment: Turn off OSC 1, 2 and 3. Listen to the NOISE. Shape the NOISE with the envelope and filter. Open
the release and listen to the slow decay. Rotate the ATTACK knobs and listen to the slow rise of the NOISE.
Shape this into ocean waves, or the distant sound of some sand storm. Get into it. Add this texture to an
oscillator’s wave.
