Synthesizer Grundlagen - Teil 2 - Der Oszillator

In this video, we'll take a look at the first sound-generating element of a simple synthesizer: the oscillator. What is the oscillator used for? What waveforms can it output, and what are the differences between them? I'll compare various waveforms that an oscillator can produce using a small experimental setup. ``` The modular system used in the video is the synth "Cardinal" https://cardinal.kx.studio ======================== Chapters 00:00 Intro 00:35 General information and schematic diagram of a synthesizer 01:31 Meaning of the term "oscillation" and general information about the oscillator 03:18 Explanation of the experimental setup 05:16 First waveform: the sine wave 07:46 Second waveform: the triangle wave 09:40 Third waveform: the sawtooth wave 11:34 Fourth waveform: the square wave 15:16 The noise generator 16:26 Closing remarks / Credits ================================ TechTiger is a privately run channel by Sascha Kribitz with an "explainer" style. or "explainer" videos about technical questions. The channel focuses on audio and event technology, but also covers other areas such as instrument technology, computer technology, and possibly other topics like automotive technology or even the occasional DIY video. #techtiger, #synthesizer, #explainer
