The parameter controls the frequency of a simple 1-pole low-pass/high-pass filter in which is sent
white noise. From 0 to 63, high-frequency content is progressively added. From 63 to 127,
low-frequency content is progressively removed. Perfect as a raw material for percussions or sound
effects.
vowel: low-tech formant synthesis
Changing the parameter will sweep between different vocal-like sounds (14 vowels and 2
consonants).
Wavetables
The remaining waveform families are wavetables — collection of single cycle waveforms, synthetic or
sampled from real instruments. The parameter is used to smoothly "scan" the wavetable. For
example, if a wavetable has 2 waveforms, parameter = 0 plays the first waveform ; parameter = 127
plays the second ; and parameter = 64 plays a mix of both. Wavetables can contain up to 16 waves.
