The way the sine shaper or d-11 dist 'transforms' a sine wave is very similar to a wave folder, often found as part of buchla and serge systems. The simplest way to describe a wave folder is that it folds the wave, i.e. adds harmonics, thus running a sine or a triangle through such device, tweaking the folding amout, gives the effect of opening the cutoff freq of a filter, though in essence it works opposite to a filter as you are actually adding harmonics instead of removing them. :)"<br /><br />Very cool!Lewis.72https://www.blogger.com/profile/05805472577735146808noreply@blogger.com
