Here’s the new Wave Swarm from AJH Synth. It’s a dual 6 stage wave animator that can function as two independent (can do stereo) multi stage waveform animators or one big 12 stage animator. The animation is based on creating shifting versions of the input wave which when stacked with the dry sound or when stacking several stages sounds like mixing several detuned oscillators together. You can play around with each stage to emphasise or minimise the tremolo like sounds from the phase cancellations as the sounds modulate against each other. Typical applications would be turning a saw wave into a super saw but it will also do gorgeous subtle shifts in tone and harmonics with softer sines and triangles too. It will create thicker and almost glitchy effects with already modulating wavetables and complex tones while continuing to track the input wave. Determined to bend and push it beyond the basics I used it as a two distortion device and a weird wonky clock generator too.
