Just got my first synth. Is this normal?
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>I just got my first synthesizer, a Novation Bass Station 2 and I love it.This machine is great! So many possibilities.</p> <p>However, I noticed that when using both OSC1 and OSC2, there is a slight change in timbre over time when playing different notes. Almost like there is some LFO modulation stuff going on. This does not happen if i stay on the same note. And it does not happen if I am using a single oscillator.</p> <p>Is this normal? If so, could someone explain to me why that is?</p> <p>Here is a recording I made playing C and G:</p> <p>MP3: <a href="https://voca.ro/n9uGbs6mqrO">https://voca.ro/n9uGbs6mqrO</a></p> <p>Oscilloscope GIF: <a href="https://gfycat.com/barepessimisticicelandichorse">https://gfycat.com/barepessimisticicelandichorse</a></p> <p>This is using the init patch. Just added OSC2 by turning the knob to 100% in the mixer. Also cut off some of the highs to save your ears
(it happens when the filter is all the way up too)</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/villor"> /u/villor </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ferm6a/just_got_my_first_synth_is_this_normal/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ferm6a/just_got_my_first_synth_is_this_normal/">[comments]</a></span>
