Syzygy
Dual stereo phase-feedback oscillator with cross-FM, ring/AM, wavefolding, and noise.
Panel map
SYZYGY is a dual stereo oscillator built from two independent phase-feedback distortion voices. Each voice can run free or be hard-synced, and the two voices can interact via cross-FM plus ring modulation / amplitude modulation. A wavefolder and noise source are integrated for additive, animated timbres.
Basic use
• Pitch: Patch V/Oct to Osc I, Osc II, or both. • LOCK/SYNC: Choose free-running or sync one oscillator to the other for tighter harmonic structure. • FM: By default the FM inputs are normalized for cross-modulation; patching breaks the normal. • Voice mode: Set VOLUME to 0 and drive it with an envelope to use Syzygy as a polyphonic synth voice. • Fold/Noise/Mix: Use FOLD and the noise blend to move from clean to complex.
Patching suggestions
• Cross-FM textures: Leave FM normals intact and sweep XFM for evolving harmonic motion. • Stereo animation: Use spread/align controls to widen and animate L/R motion, then post-process with chorus/delay. • Voice patch: V/Oct + envelope to VOLUME, then use MOD/MIX to morph between clean mix and cross-mod.
