[sdiy] Polyphonic Vibrato

[Oren B. Leavitt]

Hello Harry & List,

I think it is a wonderful way to get that true ensemble effect that you
just can't get using post process effects such as chorusing, etc.
In a mono or duo phonic setup, I like using three oscillators per voice,
tuned to unison, with a separate LFO applying vibrato to each
oscillator. This produces a delicious ensemble effect.
For chords on a poly, a separate LFO on each voice applying a very small
amount of vibrato would be a neat effect. Add more vibrato, and it will
definitely sound unORGANized ;-)
Lots of possibilities here!
