Studio Electronics Oscillation uses an exponential current source followed by waveshaping circuits they pioneered. The waveforms are DC-coupled (components connected directly together without any coupling capacitors), so they keep their shape even at sub-Hz speeds. The outputs are also buffered, so the amplitude is independent of the load they are driving. The waveform levels on some modern eurorack oscillators are often all different, and they vary depending on whether they go into the mixer or directly to the filter; coupling the circuitry without capacitors in-line gives the go-ahead for the full spectrum of frequencies to do their thing and ensures near identical response over the years.
Potentiometer potential
Six attenuation pots control the FREQUENCY, TUNE, PW CV IN, PUSLE WIDTH, FM CV IN and SUB LEVEL, delivering smooth, detailed and complex expression.
Switch it up
NORMAL and LOW RANGE choose between wide sweeping audio frequencies or clicks (respectively) for creating a rhythmic pulse or sweep. SINE, TRI, SAW, SQR switch their respective waveforms on and off.
Patch it up
Eleven patch points — 1 V/O, FM IN, WAVE MIX, SYNC IN, PW IN, SUB OUT, SINE OUT, TRI OUT, SAW OUT, RAMP OUT and SQR OUT — direct the deepest manipulation.
