Verbos Complex Oscillator: Soft sync

Verbos Complex Oscillator: Soft sync

(electronic beats) - [Instructor] One more trick the Verbos Complex Oscillator has up its sleeve, is sync, or synchronization, where one oscillator resets its waveform whenever the other oscillator resets its waveform. First I'm going to put this back to where we were, where the mix is just in the Verbos. Turn up the filter cutoff so that's not in the way. Take the envelope out of the modulation amounts since we will not be using the modulation section anymore. Now, the Verbos implements a version of sync called soft sync, where it does not automatically reset the waveform as soon as it gets a signal from the master oscillator. It has to be somewhat close to finishing its cycle before it will actually reset. I've demonstrated hard sync elsewhere. You'll hear the soft sync is a little bit different of a sound. In the case of the Verbos, its implementation is a bit harder than what you might hear out of a Buchla oscillator, but not as strong as you hear from other hard sync oscillators.…
