position this effect is disabled. In the "On" position Oscillator sync is active.
Pulse Width Select - Switch
ENV 2 MAN LFO 2
PWM SOURCE
This switch selects how the Width of the Pulse Wave (if selected on either or both oscillators) is controlled. In the MAN
(manual) position, the width is directly controlled by the position of the Pulse Width knob above. In the ENV 2 position, the
variation in the Pulse Width is controlled by the second Envelope, starting and finishing at 50% with the amount of shift
away from this setting being controlled by the Pulse Width knob above. In the LFO 2 position, the variation of the Pulse
Width is controlled by LFO 2, with the amount of variation being controlled by the Pulse Width knob above. Variation in the
harmonic content of an oscillator (which is what changing the Pulse Width achieves) is very pleasing to the ear, especially
at lower pitches where all the associated harmonics fall within the audio range and can clearly be heard. When selected to
ENV 2, the effect is best appreciated using fairly slow changes, so longer Envelope 2 Attack and Decay times are best.

DETUNE
This knob controls the amount of fine tuning difference between the two oscillators. In it's central position the oscillators will
be exactly in tune with each other. Turning the knob anti-clockwise will make Oscillator 2 increasingly "Flat" in relation to
