PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) [Aliased (not recommended)]
This oscillator's distinctive parameter is PWM Wid, which adjusts pulse width from values of
1-99. With PWM Wid set to a value of 50, PWM produces a square wave. The further the
PWM Wid parameter is set from 50, the narrower the pulse width becomes, changing the
shape of the output waveform and thus altering the oscillator's tonal quality.

SYNC SAW

Sync Saw consists of two saw waves, one that you hear (the slave) and one that controls the
slave (the master). This oscillator's distinctive parameter is SyncOff, which controls the offset
of the slave and master waves. With SyncOff set to 0, the master has no effect on the slave.
When an offset is set, the slave restarts its wave cycle every time the master wave completes
a cycle. Offsets cause the slave to restart its cycle in the middle of normal sawtooth cycles,
which causes the slave's waveform shape and sound to be altered.

SUPER SAW

The Super Saw oscillator consists of two saw waves. This oscillator's distinctive parameter is
Detune, which has settings from 0-50 cents, allowing you to detune both of the saw waves
by up to 50 cents away from the root pitch of the key played. Detune affects both saw waves,
one is detuned above the original root pitch, and the other is detuned below the original root
pitch.

TRIPLE SAW

The Triple Saw oscillator consists of three saw waves. This oscillator's distinctive parameter
is Detune, which has settings from 0-50 cents, allowing you to detune two of the saw waves
by up to 50 cents away from the root pitch of the key played. Detune affects two of the
saw waves, one is detuned above the original root pitch, and the other is detuned below the
original root pitch. The third saw wave always plays the root pitch and is not affected by
Detune.
