PARAMETEROVERVIEW
Parameter Overview
Oscillator Section
‘Oscillator’ is the name given to a device that generates a continuous, cyclic waveform. Different waveforms
produce tones with different characteristics or ‘timbre’ - from the pure simplicity of a sine wave to the harsh
buzz of a saw wave. The Virus TI offers several oscillator types, for a virtually limitless supply of different
tones from which to start your sound. You can then combine up to three different oscillator types, to create
all manner of rich, complex sounds.
The top row of knobs in the oscillator section are all assigned by the OSC1/2/3 SELECT button. Press this
button repeatedly to move the focus of these knobs to the desired oscillator. For now, please ensure that the
OSC1 LED (directly above SELECT) is lit up.
Press EDIT once to access parameters relevant to the selected oscillator. You can now use the VALUE 1/2/3
knobs beneath the display to adjust the displayed parameters, and the PARAMETER buttons to navigate the
pages within the menu. On page 1, the following parameters are displayed:

Press EDIT again to access the Common Edit sub-menu containing parameters common to the whole os-
cillator section. If at any time you want to return to the ‘top’ page which displays the Single preset names,
press either the EXIT button (top left of the display) or the SINGLE button.
Shape •
The SHAPE knob blends the waveform between a selection of waves determined by Oscillator Mode. Start-
ing with patch ROM B-120 ‘Tutorial 1’, please take some time to explore the different modes and how the
SHAPE knob behaves in each (rst ensure that SELECT is focussed to OSC1)
