Emulating oscillator sync with an Alpha Juno

Post by I Am the Walrus » Sat Sep 15, 2007 6:31 pm

The Alpha Juno is only a 1 oscillator + sub osc synth, but it has all those extra waveforms so maybe it would be possible get a decent approximation? I can get something that sounds kind of similar using the "comb" shaped sub osc with chorus and lots of filter resonance, but its not really close enough for what I want. Any suggestions?

Pulse width can help you with a synced square wave sound.

the key to a typical sync sound really involves some sort of modulation of the oscillator being sync'ed with either an evelope or LFO.. so you may be able to get the sound by fiddling with the waveforms, but it's basically impossible to get the typical "waaooh" sync sound on any juno.
Do you even post on vse bro?
