Can someone explain what multiple oscillators enables for a sound?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I've been admiring analog synths like the minimoog for years but only could cough up the money to buy digital synthesizers like the MicroKorg XL, and I didn't even mess with the analog modeling settings because I didn't understand them.</p> <p>I decided to finally start at level 1, so I bought an Arturia MicroBrute which has one oscillator, and a great beginner-friendly manual. Since I'm starting from very minimal knowledge I think it's a great launching point for me. But I was wondering, what could I do that I can't now if I bought a more expensive option with multiple oscillators? The single oscillator on the microbrute allows you to select whatever proportions you like of triangle, square and sawtooth, so I'm wondering what the benefit would be of having separate oscillators. I know this is probably a super basic question, but most of the information I've seen about it doesn't seem to give many details.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/BENWILEY4000"> /u/BENWILEY4000 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/lbptvs/can_someone_explain_what_multiple_oscillators/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/lbptvs/can_someone_explain_what_multiple_oscillators/">[comments]</a></span>
