Oscillator Controls

Sets the base oscillator frequency over a 4-octave range.

Adjustment is in semitones.
The Master Tune knob affects the pitch of all oscillators, as does the Transpose
parameter in the Globals section.
This adjusts the tuning of Oscillator B upward (sharp) and has a

different interval than Oscillator B.
