Pulse Oscillators

A true pulse oscillator only contains the samples -1 and 1. The alias amount is used to determine how close it should be to a sawtooth wave.

Property Parameters

alias

Controls the distortion level by dividing the amplitude.

  • -1: downwards sloping sawtooth wave
  • 0: symmetrical square wave
  • 1: upwards sloping sawtooth wave

Alternate Interpolation

Send a triangle wave as input into a pulse oscillator to interpolate between a triangle and pulse wave.

Sound Theory

The square wave, similar to the triangle wave only has odd harmonics.
