Tarabbia Oscillator

The Tarabbia Oscillator gained notoriety in our viral Cheeze Machine soft synths. So much so that we decided to offer it here to Korg Multi Engine synth users. Generous thick analog-sounding basses, leads, brass, and much, much more. If you like Moog and ARP sounding synthesis, this one is for you.

PARAMETERS

• Unison Mode:

0. The 4 detuned voices are played at the same base pitch
1. One of the detuned voices is played one octave below
2. Two of the detuned voices are played one octave below
3. One of the detuned voices are played two octaves below, and one is played one octave below

• Detune (0-100%) – controls the amount of detuning for the unison voices
• PW (0-100%) – controls the pulse width of the waveform
• Gap (0-100%) – controls the size of the gap in the waveform
• Random Phase (0-1) – randomizes the initial phase of the 4 detuned voices
• Shape Assign (0-1) – swaps the ‘shape’ and ‘shift-shape’ controls

FRONT PANEL CONTROLS

• The Shape knob morphs the base shape between a saw and a square wave
• Shift-Shape controls the brightness of the wave from a pure sine (0%) to a saw/wave morph (100%)
• These assignments can be swapped using the ‘Shape Assign’ internal control. In this way it is possible to use the Korg hardware LFO to modulate the wave brightness or the wave shape.
