Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Hi, just a cool thing I noticed:

I was playing around with the ROM waves, and had Osc 3 set to wave #14,
at a low volume (40-50).  Then I noticed that I sounded much cooler if I
detuned that osc considerably (I have the base pitch set to "E" now) --
it doesn't make the patch sound out of tune, I suppose because that wave
doesn't have a strong fundamental, but adds a nice fizzy effervescent
character that doesn't seem to be present if the pitch is just set to C
(makes me think of the typical yamaha rompler sound).

This only seems to work with a few waves, notably #14 and #15.

Looking at Carbon111's wave charts, those are narrow pulse waves, which
makes sense...
