Re: [xl7] MP7 Oscillator sync

2010-03-26 by Aaron Eppolito

If you're talking something like hard sync (the PWM sounding stuff), then no.  If you're talking about the oscillators having a fixed phase relationship with each other (i.e. they start exactly together and stay locked), then yes, they do that.

I'm guessing you mean hard sync though.  You CAN do some very cool hard sync like effects with the SStart (stands for sample start) patchcord.  Essentially if you trigger that (by sending it a positive value), it will restart the sample.  Combining that with an LFO will give you hard sync to the LFO, which is really a better thing to sync to anyway (unless you wanted ring mod).  Furthermore, you can also tweak SLoop (sample loop point) to do all sorts of crazy stuff too...

This may be a dumb question but can you sync the oscillators in the mp7?
Thanks
