3.3. Sub Oscillator

Users of the original TB-303, or any recent hardware or software emulation focused
exclusively on originality, may have wished they could thicken up its low end. After all, the
original said "Bass Line" right on the panel. Acid V's sub-oscillator grants this wish with three
simple settings:

3.3.1. Octave

This knob adjusts whether the sub-oscillator pitch is the same as the main pitch, or one
octave lower, or two.

3.3.2. Waveform

Acid V offers a choice of square, sawtooth, and sine waveforms for the sub-oscillator.

3.3.3. Volume

Turn it up! (Or down if you want a more original 303 character. We're not here to judge, just
to give you what you want.)

3.4. Vibrato

Vibrato on a bass machine? Certainly — bass players use it, but usually in small doses on
certain notes. Acid V's vibrato works similarly, applying only to notes in the
whose steps have the Vibrato box checked. The Speed and Amount knobs control those
aspects of the vibrato only for notes where it applies.
