freq shifter osc

2002-11-26 by cuari7

Anyone ever used the quadrature oscillator that comes with the freq.
shifter as a stand-alone vco? My system has 2 NTO's and one PCO, and
I was coveting another panel so I could add at least one more
oscillator. Then I decided to experiment with this little sinewave-
generating module, processing it through the wave multiplier,
and....WOW! It tracks beautifully!! Better than the PCO, I'd dare
say. By processing its sine wave with the top section of the wave
multiplier, I get a nice square wave, which can be made buzzy by VC-
modulating the mult with a slow-attacking envelope. Using the middle
and bottom sections, I get wild, distorted waves (almost like a fuzz
box). In fact, these two humble modules are all you need for an
incredible distorted/metal guitar-like patch! And now that I can
count this as VCO#4, I can use my little Serge as a duophonic, 2-
vco/voice system. Woohoo!! Highly recommended :-)
