# Organic

Organic is an additive synthesizer which combins the output of up to 8 oscillators.

Although it has more oscillators than TripleOscillator, it is less flexible because it lacks a lot of its abilities, among them the option to modulate the oscillators with each other. The phase offsets of each oscillator are randomized whenever a note is played (for both stereo channels separately). For that reason this instrument sounds slightly different everytime you press a key even when you don't change any settings.Organic is most useful for creating organ instruments (that's where its name comes from) and pads.

### Individual Oscillator Controls <a href="#individual-oscillator-controls" id="individual-oscillator-controls"></a>

* **Wave:** The waveform generated by the oscillator
  * 0%: Sine
  * 1%: Sawtooth
  * 2%: Pulse
  * 3%: Triangle
  * 4%: Moog Triangle
  * 5%: Exponential
* **Vol:** Volume of the oscillator
* **Pan:** Stereo panning of the oscillator
* **Wide:** Coarse of the oscillator. Has a range of one octave up and down.

### General Controls <a href="#general-controls" id="general-controls"></a>

* **Dist:** Adds a clipper effect (distortion)
* **Vol:** General volume
* **Randomize:** Randomizes all oscillator settings

### Tuning of the Oscillators <a href="#tuning-of-the-oscillators" id="tuning-of-the-oscillators"></a>

This is the default coarse of the oscillators with "Wide" on 0
