Description: And here I used a combi-sidech-shepard, but I changed the Duck effect behind the ring modulator. And it does not sound bad either. Here, moreover, the escort stands above Schepard. If you like Combi pcg. file,, write to arpegiator@seznam.cz

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.

Combi Ring Shepard

The first sound I call World Engine like the one in the Superman man of steel. 
The solo-synth can be programmed with midi designer for the ipad I've found that satisfying working with an visual interface and sculpt the sounds.
