MULTI
The Multi category contains a selection of multi-oscillator waveforms.
In all instances, the OSC CTRL parameter determines the amount of
Detune between the oscillators.
Multi Saw: Two sawtooth waveforms at the same pitch.
Multi Saw 8ve: Two sawtooth waveforms tuned an octave apart.
Multi Saw 5th: Two sawtooth waveforms where one is tuned a fifth
above the other.
Multi Saw 5th+: Two sawtooth waveforms where one is tuned an
octave and a fifth above the other.
Multi Saw 8ve 8ve+: Three sawtooth waveforms, each separated by
an octave.
Multi Saw 8ve 5th+: Two sawtooth waveforms where one is tuned an
octave and a fifth above the other, with an added sub octave sawtooth
waveform below the fundamental.
SUPER
Super Saw, Super Square, Super Bright, Super Organ: A large
number of simulatenously sounding oscillators, producing a very
rich and full sound. The number of oscillators and the stereo width is
increased in Unison mode.
MISC
The Miscellaneous category contains two additional types of noise
generators, as well as a Bell waveform oscillator:
Pink Noise: A noise signal where the spectral density decreases with
higher frequency, making it “softer” than the White Noise option.
Red Noise: A noise signal with more energy in the low frequencies, and
more dampened high frequencies than the Pink Noise option.
Bell: Amplitude modulation is used to create a complex bell-like wave-
form. OSC CTRL controls the pitch of the modulator, and thereby the
harmonic content and character of the waveform.
WAVE
These waveforms have been carefully designed and selected to provide
rich and interesting timbres with great variety, for those sounds that
cannot be reached with the other oscillator types. Advanced synthesis
techniques have been used to reproduce these waveforms perfectly
over the whole keyboard range.
i The OSC CTRL parameter has no effect on the Wave waveforms.
The available categories contain digital waveforms covering a wide
range of tonal characteristics. Some of the waveforms are distilled
from acoustic instruments while some are combinations of several
overlapping spectra. Others are extremely bright, with a fundamental
that is softer than the many harmonics.
FM
The basic principle behind frequency modulation (FM) synthesis is
that one sine oscillator (the modulator) modulates the frequency of
another (the carrier). The carrier can in turn modulate the frequency of
yet another oscillator, etc. The resulting waveform is far more rich in
harmonics than the original Sine waveform, and drastic changes in tonal
character are provided by altering the amount of modulation.
Traditionally, FM oscillators are referred to as operators, and the FM
categories of the Nord Stage 4 provide algorithms with 2, 3 and 4
operators (in reality 8 operators when using the Unison settings).
The OSC CTRL parameter controls the amount of frequency modulation
for all FM categories.
HARMONIC
For the Harmonic categories the Partial parameter determines the
relationship between the modulator and the carrier, expressed as a
multiple of the root frequency.
With these algorithms the modulator and carrier retain a harmonic
relationship regardless of setting, making these categories suited for
tonal FM sounds.
Available partials range from 0.5 to 24.
FM Harmonic A: 2-OP algorithm at ratio P:1.
FM Harmonic B: 3-OP algorithm at ratios P:1:1. The modulation
amount is greater at the first modulation stage than at the second.
FM Harmonic C: 3-OP algorithm at ratios P:3:1.
FM Harmonic D: 3-OP algorithm at ratios P:1:1. The modulation
amount is greater at the second modulation stage than at the first.
FM Harmonic E: 4-OP algorithm where one pair at ratio P:1 is mixed
with another pair at ratio 1:1. Especially suited for bell and electric piano
type sounds.
INHARMONIC
For the Inharmonic categories the Pitch parameter determines the
relationship between the modulator and the carrier in semitones.
With most Pitch selections the modulator and carrier are at an
inharmonic relationship, making these algorithms suited for less tonal,
more experimental FM sounds.
Available pitches range from -12 to 48.
FM Inharmonic A: 2-OP algorithm at ratio P:1.
FM Inharmonic B: 3-OP algorithm at ratio P:1:1. The modulation
amount is greater at the first modulation stage than at the second.
FM Inharmonic C: 3-OP algorithm at ratio P:3:1.
FM Inharmonic D: 3-OP algorithm at ratio P:1:1. The modulation
amount is greater at the second modulation stage than at the first.
FM Inharmonic E: 4-OP algorithm with one pair at ratio P:1 and one
pair at ratio 1:1.
FILTER SECTION
The FILTER is a crucial component in shaping the timbre of the sound
and can also be modulated by the Filter Envelope as well as the LFO.
Most filters share the same parameters: FREQ (Frequency) controls the
