NZEXT Oscillator Modulation Parameters
Similar in principle to
Andromeda's audio sources and use them as modulation sources. By incorporating
these mod routes into the A6's modulation system, you now have the ability to use
one of the synthesizer's three noise sources or Oscillator 1, which produce very high
rates of modulation, as mod sources.
Note that, similar to the

you to create a custom modulation route.
