| # Oscillators | knob | 1 – 16 | Shift function (Freeze + Spread): sets the number of active oscillators from 1 to 16. Default is 16. Reducing count decreases density and increases perceived loudness. Disabled frozen oscillators lose their frozen frequency.615 |
| Balance | knob | — | Controls balance/mix between oscillators. Also accesses Crossfading shift function when Freeze is held.615 |
| Cross FM | knob | — | Controls the amount of FM between oscillators. At minimum there is no modulation; turning up creates complex harmonics. The algorithm (which oscillators modulate which) is set by the Cross FM switch.615 |
| Cross FM Switch | switch | — | Selects FM algorithm. Up: root oscillator modulates all others. All: each oscillator modulates the next higher one. Down: highest oscillator modulates all others.615 |
| Crossfading | knob | — | Shift function (Freeze + Balance): controls steepness of crossfading between scale notes. Fully CCW disables crossfading (oscillators snap to nearest note). Center applies small crossfading (default). Fully CW applies maximum crossfading (always blends two nearest notes).615 |
| Detune | knob | — | Adjusts detuning of oscillators after quantization. Root oscillator is not detuned; odd-numbered oscillators are detuned upward, even-numbered downward. Small amounts create lush stereo fields; larger amounts create beat frequencies and dissonance.615 |
| Freeze | button | — | Freezes/unfreezes a subset of oscillators. Frozen oscillators do not respond to pitch controls but still respond to Twist, Warp, Cross FM, and Balance. Hold while turning knobs to access Shift features (#Oscillators, Crossfading, Stereo Mode, Freeze Mode).615 |
| Freeze Mode | knob | — | Shift function (Freeze + Twist): selects which subset of oscillators is frozen. Three options: freeze only the root oscillator (highest setting), freeze the bottom half (e.g. 1-8 of 16), or freeze odd-numbered oscillators (lowest setting).615 |
| Learn | button | — | Enters/exits Learn mode for creating and saving custom scales. Flashes green on successful save. Hold for 4 seconds to restore the selected factory scale. Also used to enter/confirm steps during calibration.615 |
| Pitch | knob | — | Transposes all oscillators after quantization, preserving intervals. Used to tune to other equipment or provide pitch-sweep effects. Holding Shift while turning fine-tunes the pitch. Fine-tune amount is saved across power cycles.615 |
| Root | knob | — | Controls the pitch of the lowest (root) oscillator before quantization. Adjusting causes oscillators to crossfade between notes in the selected scale. When used with Pitch, the range exceeds human hearing from about 1Hz to over 20kHz.615 |
| Scale | knob | 1 – 10 | Selects one of ten scales within the current group. In Learn mode, selects the slot where the new scale will be saved.615 |
| Scale Switch | switch | — | Selects one of three scale groups: 12TET (equal temperament semitones), Octave (any intervals repeating over octaves), or Free (no restrictions on intervals). In Learn mode, determines quantization constraints applied to entered notes.615 |
| Spread | knob | — | Adjusts spacing between oscillator pitches before quantization. At minimum, all oscillators are in unison. Turning up spreads them towards higher frequencies while leaving the root note stationary. Also accesses # Oscillators shift function when Freeze is held.615 |
| Stereo Mode | knob | — | Shift function (Freeze + Warp): selects panning algorithm for stereo outputs. Three settings: odd oscillators to Out A / even to Out B (lowest); lower half to Out A / upper half to Out B (middle); root oscillator to Out A / rest to Out B (highest).615 |
| Twist | knob | — | Applies phase distortion to each oscillator. At minimum, no distortion (pure sine). Turning up morphs the waveshape depending on the Twist switch setting (Ramp, Pulsar, or Crush). Also accesses Freeze Mode shift function when Freeze is held.615 |
| Twist Switch | switch | — | Selects phase distortion algorithm: Ramp (morphs to sawtooth), Pulsar (narrow pulses), or Crush (bit-crushes the oscillator phase).615 |
| Warp | knob | — | Applies wave-folding to the phase-distorted oscillator waveform. At minimum, no folding (sine). Turning up increases folding. Type of folding set by Warp switch. Also accesses Stereo Mode shift function when Freeze is held.615 |
| Warp Switch | switch | — | Selects wave-folding algorithm: Fold (analog-style, up to 6 folds), Cheb (Chebyshev polynomial, up to 16th order), or Segment (linear/triangle-wave based, 8 shapes).615 |
