R_Ware - Feedback Oscillator

Complex Oscillator with Cross-Modulation

Dive into a world of endless possibilities as you harness the power of this dual complex oscillator with cross-modulation capabilities, delivering a kaleidoscope of tones that defy convention. Enter a realm of unprecedented creativity, where every twist of a knob yields new and unexpected auditory delights.

At the heart of the R_Ware Feedback Oscillator lies a sine wave oscillator infused with feedback phase modulation, enabling the creation of saw and square-esque timbres that are both vibrant and dynamic. But that's just the beginning! With a plethora of sound shaping options including windowed sync, phase modulation, linear through-zero FM, phase distortion, and more, you have total control over every aspect of your sound.

Manual

PITCH

  • 1V/Oct CV
    • pitch cv input (Exponential FM)
  • FREQ Knob
    • Set the base tuning frequency
    • Default is C2 (65.4064 Hz)
  • OCT Knob
    • Set the octave
  • FINE Knob
    • Set the fine tuning +/- 700cents
  • RATIO Knob
    • Set the frequency ratio between OSC1 and OSC2
  • OFFSET Knob
    • Set the phase offset between OSC1 and OSC2

UNISON

  • Voices Knob/CV
    • Set the number of unison voices continuously from 1 to 5
  • Detune Knob/CV
    • Set the unison voice detuning
    • Actual value depends on Unison Mode
  • Phase Knob/CV
    • Set the unison voice phase offset
  • Mode Switch
    • Set the unison mode:
      • OFF - no unison (use to save cpu)
      • EXP - detuning is exponential
      • LIN - detuning is linear
      • SPC - special exponential detuning
  • JITTER Knob
    • Random frequency variation strength
    • Also active when Unison Mode is OFF
  • JITTER FREQ Knob
    • Update frequency of jitter value

QUALITY

  • OS
    • Oversampling settings
    • Also affects timbre
    • In general the higher the OS factor the brighter the oscillator can be

CROSS MODULATION

Each section has one control that can be CROSS MODULATED. Osc1 (left) modulates Osc2 (right) when knob is set to the right half and vice versa for the left half. The CV input attenuates the Knob Value. It does not switch the modulation order. For negative CV the signal is inverted instead.

FREQUENCY

  • EXP FM CV
    • Exponential FM
