Re: Q about the 4 osc's

2007-05-04 by prophetvs

don't be alarmed- you can throw them into a regular center pan with a
turn of a knob in the filter section.  it's a cool feature because if
you keep the two oscillators on separate channels panned apart from
one another (you can vary the separation), it can create a really cool
& unusual layer/doubled/stereo sound.

but i get the feeling you are concerned they must stay split in a pan
from one another throughout the signal path, which they don't.  as for
the tweak/channel concerns, don't worry, it is quite flexible and will
work in a normal, typical analog synth fashion if you so program it to.
