- Page 2 Hello and thank you for using the SkyWave VCO for Eurorack. We hope you will find its oscillations to be fun and useful! The SkyWave is an all-analog voltage controlled oscillator capable of producing many different timbres and unique harmonic behaviors, thanks to an original step-based control scheme which allows the user to dial in completely different wave-shapes and levels for successive oscillator cycles.
- Page 3 Pin 4 (TZFM/PM) OFF 2. Theory of Operation The SkyWave is a complex VCO which uses a step sequencer in a feedback loop with a variable-waveshape analog oscillator to create sequenced waveforms. With each new oscillator cycle, the user may dial in a new waveshape and bi-polar wave level centered around 0V, with powerful and unique...
- Page 4 Waveform Select knobs (left column): Three-way crossfaders select the waveform present at the main SkyWave output jack. A setting of fully CCW will select a Triangle wave, Noon will select a Ramp wave, and fully CW will select a Pulse wave, with positions in the middle causing interpolation between the waveforms.
- Page 5 No. Steps: Sets the length of the SkyWave’s step sequence between 2, 3, and 4 steps. Changing the sequence length will have an effect on the SkyWave’s perceived pitch, with 2 steps an octave up from 4 and 3 producing a perfect fifth in the middle.
- Page 6 5. Patch Ideas “Pure Triangle Wave” This is a good starting point for working with the SkyWave. Turn all eight Step Sequencer controls fully CCW to produce a clean, phase-inverted triangle wave from the SkyWave output. Turn any Sequencer knob slowly clockwise and observe the harmonic changes which take place.
