• 06.03.14 BASS Oscillator (Bass)

  • BASS Oscillator Model
    • 
  • Description: The BASS model is a quadrature oscillator with Sine and Cosine inputs. The Sine oscillator feeds a balanced modulator, and its output mixes with the modulated Cosine oscillator. Saturate, Fold, and Noise control the modulation model.
  • Saturate: Sets the saturation of the Cosine oscillator.
  • Fold: Applies a two-stage asymmetric fold that adds harmonics by folding parts of the wave that fall outside set boundaries back onto the wave. Don Buchla pioneered wavefolding in the early 1970s.
  • Noise: Sets the noise level. Noise phase-modulates the two oscillators in opposite phases and is added between the fold stages.
