Upcoming wavetable oscillator and processors IAP for Drambo

Drambo soon getting a wavetable oscillator in-app purchase option that can read Serum-compatible wavetables is already great news.
It's the "Wave effect" modules however that give wavetable synthesis an exciting new touch!

In this example, I've deliberately used nothing but a sinewave and kept the WT index at zero in order to showcase a few simple wavetable-specific processors that only work inside the WT oscillator. I have soloed one processor module after another to demonstrate what they do individually, then enabled them all to hear them in combination.

What they can do to thousands of other available Serum format wavetables in order to make them sound completely different... well, I'll leave that up to your imagination 😇

  • Impressive!
    @rs2000 Can interpolation be turned off to use the wavetable (or wave effect) as a microtonal quantizer or stepped LFO? Or is it intended for audio-rate only?

  • @rs2000
    Thanks for sharing this, I wasn't sure what is that '+' supposed to be. Huge addition.
    Is it a bug or expected behaviour that the 'modulator' for the 'Amount' doesn't seem to have any effect (scaling)?

    Yes, interpolation can be turned off (it's the "X-Fade" option) if you want to "hard step through" a wavetable.
    And yes, WT OSC pitch can be dragged down to frequencies low enough in order to use the wavetable data as a weird LFO waveform 😊

    It does. All the changes in sound are based on modulation.
    The "Amount" knobs are all pre-set to zero and the bipolar option is switched off in the LFOs so whatever comes out of an LFO will increase the modulation amount for the respective wavetable processor.

  • well, talking about game-changers........

  • Here's another example, this time using a wavetable in a somewhat non-typical way.

    I once asked: What happens if I load a conventional wave file into the wavetable oscillator?
    Luckily, @giku_beepstreet did allow that too. And we're having a lot of fun with it already.

    Yep, my bad, I was modulating it with wrong signal. Btw what's the best description for this new icon?
    Is it spectrum?

    Oh... does it mean I can sample some of my hw oscillators and use them inside D? Yay 😁

  • Sweet! Wavetables! 🤩

    The icon is supposed to say spectrum but in fact these are wavetable specific processors. Dunno if the icon will change before release...

    The whole wavetable journey has been one with many detours and experiments... in the beginning, it wasn't meant to be half as deep as it is now.

    You can! Just make sure your waveforms are exactly 2048 samples long and they loop well.
    (the ideal frequency to tune your synth to would be multiples of your audio sampling frequency divided by 2048.)
    You can also append multiple other waveforms as long as they're also 2048 samples long.
    You could even record filter sweeps this way. But remember that frequencies will be re-pitched too so you might need multi-sampled wavetables 😉

    Thanks for the tips and explanation. Yes, it is deep now... a real gem for sound designers!

  • Amazing. How soon?

  • Here’s my money

    Drambo soon is the term :D

  • It's working pretty well, there are some other refinements too that will make life a bit easier for tweaks ;)

    woooo, when is this dropping then?

  • Serum is one of my go to synths, definitely money well spent imo, if It ever came to iOS it would be an insta buy, I’m looking forward to the Drambo iap 👍🏽

    Serum has a great wavetable editor so both go together well 😊

  • Very exciting. The only thing I find more exciting is the announcement that Drambo can soon be used as AU host.

    We do our best here and on patchstorage!
    But it takes time and patience. No wonder it can be a challenging task, with modular synthesis being a mix of physics, electronics, maths, digital signal processing, logic and experience with classic synthesizers.

    I’ve learned a lot looking to your patches on patchstorage.

    Thanks for your effort and to the other people who publish on patchstorage. It is real vital for us modular noobs.

    Thank you for the summary. I’m out. Anyone wanna buy a Drambo? Hehe, well maybe I can just dload premades on patchstorage and get some use out of it. ;)

    U can also just patch random stuff together and follow your ears. If you understand a few basic concepts. ;)

    I did make a couple loop/ditties that felt rewarding to piece together but from a pure Ear Money point of view I think I can get further preset flipping in a daw/synth and lying to myself.
