Xanu Oscillator

The Xanu Oscillator is an all-around useful audio and low frequency oscillator with unique waveshaping.

The Xanu Oscillator is a 24hp complex saw-core voltage-controlled analogue oscillator with a wide frequency range and unique Buchla-inspired waveshaping capabilities.

The Oscillator is capable of the four basic waveforms (saw, square, triangle, and sine). The saw wave is really just a normal saw wave and the square wave just has pulse width modulation, but the triangle and sine come with a bit of a twist: the triangle wave has frequency-dependent logarithmic properties, and the sine wave is not 100% clean, displaying frequency-dependent peaks (think gothic arches) in phase with the triangle wave.

Next to the basic waveform outputs are four processed outputs. These are processed variants of the four basic waveforms. The saw wave gets inverted to make a ramp wave (good for LFO-range modulation), the square wave gets high passed to turn into a spike wave, the triangle wave is basically forced through a set of opposing diodes which turns it into a unique 'mangled' waveform that is like a cross between a saw, sine, and triangle wave, and the sine gets wavefolded (morphed).

All 8 outputs can be used at once.

Other features include a built-in voltage-controlled slew limiter on the 1v/o input for portamento/glide effects, linear and exponential attenuated FM inputs, hard sync, and an attenuated pulse width input for the square wave.

NOTE: This and all other Xanu modules will not be available for sale until late 2015.
