The F
knob is for fine tuning Oscillator 2. The Fine parameter operates within one semitone, +/- 0.5

semitones. If you set Oscillator1 and 2 to equal volume (see Osc Mix below) and Oscillator 2 to '0' Coarse
tune value, and raise or lower the Fine parameter slightly, the slight difference in pitch will make the
sound "richer".
Range: +/- 0.5 semitones in 128 steps.

The C
knob is used to adjust the coarse tuning of Oscillator 2, relative to Oscillator 1. The range
OARSE
is from 5 octaves below Oscillator 1 to 5 octaves above Oscillator 1, i.e. 10 octaves. If you press the P
N
button, you can set the Oscillator 2 coarse tune in partials rather than in semitones. To aid you

This is the default way of displaying the Oscillator 2 pitch when the P
functions are not activated. The semitone value is displayed the same way for every waveform except for
Dual Sine and Dual Sine FM. The semitone figure is relative to the pitch of Oscillator 1. In the pictures
below, the middle C (C4) note is our reference note. If you turn the C
