Ableton/Live/UG/31 Instrument Reference/13 Wavetable/02 Oscillators
- Without modulation, the raw oscillators are fully band-limited and don't alias at any pitch.
- Each oscillator tab has an on switch, Gain, Pan, Semi and Detune, relative to the global Transpose.
- Two choosers pick a wavetable category and table; the arrows step through all tables across categories.
- Drop any WAV or AIFF on the display to use it as a wavetable; the choosers then browse that file's folder. Wavetable cleans up imports unless Raw is on, which suits files made as wavetables or deliberately glitchy results.
- Drag in the display or use Wave Position to move through the table. The display is linear (waveforms stacked bottom to top, time left to right) or polar (loops from inside out, time clockwise).
- Oscillator effects, two parameters each; values carry over when switching effect:
- FM — Amt and Tune; ±50% is an octave up or down, ±100% two octaves, and values between give inharmonic, noisy overtones.
- Classic — PW pulse width on any table, not just squares; Sync to a hidden oscillator.
- Modern — Warp, similar to pulse width, and Fold, wavefolding.
