Thanks for making this. Thing sounds pretty good!

Oscillator 2 sync sweep example (triangle wave)

Super nasty FM, and more tweaking with varous stuff.

Volume drop caused by dropping to 24db/oct filter. The 24db is ridiculously quieter than the 12db.

Oscillators, who could live without them, eh? They go up, they go down. At audio speeds. Ain't that a thing?

This is a tour of the Roland JP-8000's oscillator section, mostly focussing on oscillator 1. These tones are all created with one oscillator and it's parameters (which are unique to each shape). I also use the filter a bit to showcase the sound. This oscillator has a lot of unique waveforms it can make, and interesting ways to change them, including it's main selling point, the supersaw (a special blend of 7 sawtooth waves with variable detune and the smoothest sound.

The second oscillator is featured at the end. This has only three waveforms, but is capable of oscillator sync, ring modulation, x-mod (FM), and PWM on the pulse wave.

I've enabled downloading so you can watch on an oscilloscope. Because if you're as much of a nerd as I am, you'll want to.

Basic audio demos of various software synthesizers I own and use regularly, either to show off the synth, my programming work or both! Got it? Good!
