Made with 100 or so random sampled slices of waveform madness from a Wavetek 193 modulated laboratory signal generator...

I've had a lot of signal generators over the years - old and new - I mean a lot - and this one new to the fold has to be the single most versatile all-analog box of tricks for the lab I've some across to date!

The signal generator is a Wavetek model 193 – it consists of an auxiliary modulating oscillator that can generate 0-100 KHz of pulse (with variable width), sawtooth (with variable symmetry), sine, tri and square.

The main oscillator can produce sine, triangle and square with variable symmetry.

The aux osc can either AM or FM modulate the main oscillator and can be programmed to perform sweeps with the shape of the waveform selected – so you can even have a sinewave as a sweep LFO - or a ramp with variable symmetry - or a pulse with variable widths...

Having variable symmetry on both the carrier and the modulator is just brilliant for creative studio use.

You can also key the audio or remotely sync the oscillator.

And to add to all of that, to my amazement, there is a button that enables and disables carrier suppression along with a null control so its capable of xmod, genuine ring mod and quadrant-multiplying.

Both oscillators can also be voltage controlled (although I’m probably going to have to design a custom CV box for it as the transform curve is not Moog or Korg).

To cover so much sonic ground in one piece of old analog lab gear is really awesome!

Here's a little flavour of the kind of things this thing can do.

Don Haugen
Spokane, Washington 1971

Don Haugen is a visual designer, sonic experimenter, and curator based in Eugene, Oregon.

His work is guided by his interests in contrast, resonance, and the felt presence of sound, both physical and emotional. Through the use of contrasts of heavy/light, soft/hard, and quiet/loud. Haugen explores how these intangible feelings can act as catalysts to focus our inner-feelings on space and time. His current work merges home-built electro-acoustic instruments and reclaimed test equipment to create sonic texture-scapes.

Haugen’s work has been experienced through performance and exhibitions; at Drone Cinema (Videoscreening, Leiden, Netherlands & Seattle, WA. curated by Kim Cascone), Opus VII (art installation, Eugene, OR), Ende Tymes (Film screenings & performance, Brooklyn, NY) Splinter Squid Festival (Seattle, WA), NorCal Noise Festival (Sacramento, CA), Eugene Noise Festival, Denver Noise Festival, Noisepollenation (Los Angeles,CA), Portland Noise Festival, Godwaffle Noise (San Francisco, CA), several live radio performances and West Coast tours. His recorded sound works have been published by Eerie Materials, Human Monster, Control Valve, Roil Noise Offensive, Ratskin, Brise-Cul, Dolor Del Estamago, Obscurica, Enterruption, Obfuscated Records, Silent Records among others.

As a curator, Haugen focuses on creating opportunities for artists and audiences to build communities that otherwise might not exist. Everything from live scores to films, man many small and medium sized shows,
the Eugene Noise Festival, among others.

D.A.Wilson is an Electronic Engineer, Sound Designer & Vintage Synth Specialist with a particular interest in combining vintage tube, classic analog and modern digital technologies working as a synth engineer looking after a very considerable amount of vintage studio equipment for Will Gregory (Goldfrapp / Moog Ensemble) and a number of other internationally celebrated electronic musicians and producers.  Having undertaken several major restorations and produced custom electronic designs for a number of major artists including Jean-Michel Jarre, Dani is also known for fully restoring two out of the world's four remaining 1979 Crumar GDS and partially restoring 1938 Novachord 346 (the only known operational Novachord in the UK) to playable order along with developing and producing the new Elfin family of 8-bit polysynths and the popular MIDI Front Panel Animator (FPA), Filter Defeat Module (FDM) and XD-280 Drive Emulator upgrades for the AKAI S612 sampler.
