It has 7 simultaneous wave outputs, including a unique \u003cem\u003eComplex\u003c\/em\u003e output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eTransform\u003c\/em\u003e control morphs from a basic waveform through many strange iterations into a complex, gnarled mass of audio mutations at the \u003cem\u003eComplex\u003c\/em\u003e output. You can yield countless variations on these permutations by combining this novel circuit with \u003cem\u003eHard Sync\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSoft Sync\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eLinear FM\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eExponential FM\u003c\/em\u003e. Additionally, you can mute the source waveform to use the circuit as a harmonic gate\/VCA, rendering The Wave Transformer a voice unto itself. If that is not enough, there is a \u003cem\u003eShape Insert\u003c\/em\u003ethat allows you to transform external oscillations and modular-level audio sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInputs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHard Sync:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accepts +\/-5 volts.
