Actually there's an interesting trick you can do this way- set all 4 oscillator pairs to ring, with the "modulators" set to low fixed frequency each one slightly different, on saw 1 or saw 2 waves. And set the other oscillators to sine waves of different harmonics- so they each have saw wave tremolo of different frequencies. It can make this interesting delay sort of effect, but the saw waves go out of sync. I got a really cool sound this way and I tend to overuse it. > > > > I'm not saying the ESQ-M is the king of all synths any more than > > > > the VZ is, but waveforms, when used with AM or sync, can do some > > > > radical > > > > > >AM before or after filter? > > > > Before.

On the ESQ it's really more a good way to get new waveforms (sometimes with interesting aliasing harmonics) or get a really thick detuned sound.
