Sequential Pro 3 Digital Wavetable Oscillator

Exploring the third oscillator on the Sequential Pro 3 Synthesizer.


Oscillator 3 is a digital wavetable oscillator that features three Classic Virtual Analog Waveshapes (Triangle, Sawtooth, Square), as well as a Sine Wave, and Supersaw emulation. In addition, 32 complex digital wavetables are included, which cover a wide variety of sound design capability.

In the video below, we go through each of the variants in the digital oscillator, sweeping through the range of shape mod, and giving some initial thoughts on what type of sound design they might be used for.   By fine tuning the 256 steps of shape mod on the 32 digital wavetables, you essentially have access to 8192 additional single cycle wave forms. Each wavetable seamlessly morphs between the wave forms in its group, so you can modulate the wavetables based on LFOs, envelopes or other controllers to create unique animation to your sound designs. Alternatively, just dial in the perfect core tone from one of the wavetables to use as the basis for subtractive sound design, or layered on top of the VCO analog foundation of the first two oscillators.

 

Digital Osc Shapes  
Saw Classic VA Saw, matches closely with VCOs
Triangle Classic VA Triangle, more rounded shape than VCOs
Pulse Classic VA Pulse, matches closely with VCOs
Sine Digital Sine, with a little hint of upper harmonic content
   
Ssaw Supersaw Emulation, appears to be 5 detuned saws
  Shape mod increases the detuning of the saws.
