14. StyL Oscillator Style
Oscillators can be played back in subtly different styles, to emulate various quirks from specific gear from past decades;
Available are;
- 'Mdrn'; Modern - playback incorporates modern standards and techniques, including interpolation and multi-sampled waveforms
- 'dGtL'; Digital - playback allows for aliasing oscillators as found in older digital synthesizers and workstations
- 'dGt.v'; Digital / variable rate - playback allows for aliasing oscillators as found in older digital synthesizers and workstations while prorating EGs and LFOs speeds according to pitch, mimicking how EG and LFO times get "baked into" a sampled instrument
- 'AnL1'; Analog 1 - playback introduces a very subtle drift in pitch to emulate imperfect but high quality analog pitch circuitry, suitable for emulating analog patches that rely on inherently imperfect oscillator interaction for their timbres such as "analog" french horns
- 'AnL2'; Analog 2 - playback introduces a subtle drift in pitch to emulate lower-cost imperfect analog pitch circuitry, imparting a warmness and analog authenticity to certain waveforms, suitable for 303 emulations and emulating well-used, aged analog gear
- 'AnL3'; Analog 3 - playback introduces a drift in pitch to emulate intentionally imperfect analog pitch circuitry, imparting a "controlled chaos" onto the pitch of an oscillator, suitable for creating naturally chaotic timbres such as choirs
- 'AnL4'; Analog 4 - playback introduces a substantial drift in pitch to emulate low-quality or broken analog pitch circuitry, suitable for recreating VHS tape audio warble
An example of a shimmering pad created by using Digital / variable rate oscillator behavior, causing AEGs and LFOs to run at different speeds depending on note pitch to emulate sampler and ROMpler pads.

This third oscillator can be configured to either follow oscillator 1 or oscillator 2.
- Vocoder (under Sampler)
Using vocoder mode is identical to using the resampler, except that incoming audio (modulator) is used to modulate the resampler audio (carrier).
- Method 2 (under Arpeggios)
Note that 'L.1.Md'(LFO1 Mode) can be configure to output a quantized version of LFO 2's output instead by setting L.1.Md'(LFO1 Mode) to 'Chd.2'(Chord, use LFO 2 as input).
