Discover Wavetable Synthesis
Wavetable synthesis pushes beyond the boundaries of traditional synthesis, with a technique that can create rich and deep sounds in seconds. By generating sound from snapshots of audio waveforms, wavetables create harmonically rich sounds that can then be tweaked, blended and morphed to produce anything from simple, powerful sounds to complex, evolving textures.
Synthesise Sounds Instantly
WaveOSC puts the power of wavetable synthesis behind one single click. Featuring two standard oscillators and one wavetable oscillator, the third oscillator can instantly generate sonic wavetables from the output of oscillators 1 & 2, and features its own wavetable window where you can scan through wavetable sets to customise them. Unlink the left and right channel wavetables, set the levels independently and modulate the wavetable positions to create instant organic sounds with stereo movement.
Wavetable Oscillator
Oscillators 1 & 2 are analogue-style sound generators with subtractive synthesis capabilities. Offering 7 different wave shapes to choose from as the sound source (Sine, Square, Saw, Triangle, Noise, Organ, or Metallic), you can then filter the frequencies, adjust the pitch, set the voicing and dial in the envelope settings for each oscillator. These oscillators even includes their own set of effects so you can apply Phaser, Distortion, Delay & Reverb to them.
All WaveOSC oscillators also feature an independent filter per oscillator and a unison engine that can run up to 96 voices (32 voices per oscillator) in a single note play.
Oscillators 1 & 2
9 Onboard Master Effects
After the oscillators come the effects. As well as the oscillators having a set of their own effects, WaveOSC comes fully equipped with a master FX rack that contains 9 professional quality processing effects. Here, you can take your raw sound and design it further with creative and experimental possibilities, or just add the finishing touch to your sound to get it working with your track and sitting comfortably in the mix.
Master FX
The full set of effects includes a Compressor, 4 Band Parametric EQ, Distortion, Delay, Phaser, Chorus, Filter, Flanger, and Reverb - each effect expands into a full module so you can fine-tune the details. The effects chain also features 4 LFOs that can be assigned to any parameter and includes a trigger mode so they can even be used like a conventional ADSR envelope for complete control over the modulation behaviour.
