Learn synthesis

Hands-on steps from one oscillator to a full patch. Each step sets up a board for you, so there's only one or two blocks to add or settings to change. Play with them, then match the target. Hints are there if you want them.

Step 7 of 16

Two oscillators sound bigger than one

Two waves slightly out of tune drift against each other, and the sound gets wider and richer.

Osc B adds a second wave and Fine detunes it from Osc A. Unison goes further: it stacks copies of Osc A, each a little out of tune.

Your turn. A slow pad envelope is already in place. Add Osc B and Unison to make it as wide as the target.
