Fruity Loops Studio Sytrus Generator: Wave Transformation

Video Transcript

"We touched upon the elevated previous clip but now I'll go more into more in depth to show you how you can change the wave forms in each of the oscillators. I've shown before the wave form is indicated up here in the upper left hand corner of the window. This lever here is labeled as the shape changer. And it very obviously changes the shape of the wave between the recognized versions of the waves as sign, triangle, saw and square. The tension is pretty much a distortion modifier. But unlike most distortion modifiers it can actually distort the other way too. Instead of usually being square waves which most distortion modules do it can also bring it down to flattening the sign wave. And the skew actually changes the orientation of the wave itself. Being sort of like the pulse with modifier. And then the sign shaper no matter what shape it's in will put in more sign waves to give it a sign sort of ringy sound if you're trying to make something like a bell noise. And then the prefilter changes the wave so that if you want it to have a sort of a filtery sound out at first you can do it by using the filter. It sort of changes it to make it more wavy instead of sharp if it happens to be sharp it'll take away those kind of sharp feels to it. Up here there are three modifiers that you can use. It'll change the shape of the wave as you click on it and it also very intuitive cause it gives you the shape and what it's going to do with it before you want to do it. They'll have their own individual sounds and you can play with it yourself and the oscillators later when you open and see this for your own."
