Edit page
The Edit page lets you explore all of the parameters available to shape your sound in Conflux. This is the place to create sounds from scratch or tweak presets to your liking.
Conflux offers two sound sources that can be blended together, the Wavetable and the Sample Source. The Oscillator slot can be used to modulate the Wavetable Source, or as an additional, third sound source.
The sound created using the Sources and the Oscillator slot passes through a classic synth structure with a multimode filter and additional effects at the end of the signal chain that you can use to refine your sound.
The Edit page in Conflux contains the following sections:
Header: Additional parameters that define the behavior of the instrument. These parameters are only available when the Edit or Settings page is opened. For more information, refer to Header.
Source: The Wavetable and Sample Sources are the main sound generators in Conflux. You can blend wavetables and samples for hybrid sound design. For more information, refer to Source.
Oscillator slot: An auxiliary oscillator that can be used to enhance the sound of the Wavetable Source by applying frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (PM), or ring modulation (RM). Alternatively, it can be used as an additional, virtual-analog oscillator. For more information, refer to Oscillator Slot.
Filter: A resonant multimode filter that can be used to process the Wavetable and Sample Sources. For more information, refer to Filter.
LFOs: Modulation sources that generate periodic modulation for animating your sound. The two LFOs will constantly change assigned parameters. For more information, refer to LFOs.
Envelopes: Modulation sources that shape the contour of each note you play. The Amp envelope controls the volume of the sound, while the Mod envelope can be assigned to a variety of parameters. For more information, refer to Envelopes.
Effects: Four FX slots, each dedicated to a different type of effect from tone shaping and modulation effects to delay and reverb. For more information, refer to Effects.
Animator: A tempo-synced step sequencer that can be used to modulate the six macro controls. For more information, refer to Animator.
