Novation V-Station Operation & User’s Manual

66, LFOs Extras To illustrate this, assume the LFO waveform is a triangle wave and at a specific moment in time all eight are at the beginning of a the rising portion of the wave. At a later point in time all will be at the beginning of the falling portion of the wave. If this waveform …

19, Low Frequency Oscillators Another control waveform that is commonly available on synthesizers is the ‘random’ waveform. This is also sometimes known as ‘sample and hold’, often abbreviated to S/H. The reason for this is because in the really early days of sound synthesis w…

55, Conclusion Conclusion That concludes our examination of the MAIN panel. Armed with the knowledge you have (hopefully!) gained here and the Synthesis Tutorial, you should now be able to make meaningful edits to any of the preset sounds on offer (or even create your own sounds from scra…

37, Novation V-Station Arpeggiator Arpeggiator The V-Station includes an Arpeggiator which breaks down chords into single notes and plays them one at a time. For example, if a ‘C’ triad chord is held, the notes C, E and G will play one by one in sequence. This section of the MAIN panel allows you t…

21, Summary Summary An analogue synthesizer can be broken down into five main sound generating or sound modifying (modulating) blocks. 1 Oscillators that generate waveforms at a certain pitches and a noise generator that generates a noise signal for unpitched sounds and special effects. 2 A Mixer that…
