Frequently Asked Questions
It's less predictable and cyclical, introducing more chaotic variation across pitch, level, and delay, rather than a steady, repeating pattern.
While it has a delay, it’s really designed for drone creation; external signals sound best when blended with the oscillator for unique textures.
It takes some getting used to – the direct manipulation is powerful, but requires a delicate touch and experimentation to master.
