I can only use the old 259 as reference, but based on that....

With the Symetry control on one side, the wave is the same on the top
and bottom of the zero volts line. At the other end, the 2 halves are
different. The bottom is more rounded. Guitar payers like the
harmonics they get from asymetrical distortion.

High Order is one side and Low order is the other side of the Order
Control. That has to do with the harmonic content. Low order is a saw
wave and high order is the output of the wave multiplier section,
which is as much as 6 times the root frequency. he Higher order should
sound more dense.


I hope that helps somehow.
