In this presentation from Knobcon 2018, synthesist Jon Sonnenberg discusses Wave Replacement Synthesis.
Instead of modulating the oscillator to control harmonic content, or modulating a filter, Wave Replacement Synthesis uses the pulse wave output of an oscillator to ‘splice’ two wave shapes together.
Knobcon 2019 is scheduled for Sept 6-8 in the Chicago area. See the event site for details.
Let’s see now… A flip-flop and a mux? Never heard of that before.
It is clear that some of the viewers don’t understand the concept of think that this is just hard sync or PWM. It is not. It uses those functions to do something else entirely. Here is a vid that I recently posted of an example using just standard VCO’s and VCA’s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u-mDWlg2sA
To achieve the same result you can use a Bipolar Half Wave Rectifier, CFM bhwr for example.
is this the idea behind the WTF oscillator?
Lately, everything could be labeled a WTF oscillator.
This is great. It would be nice to be able to hear the questions from the audience. Usually the speaker will repeat the question out loud for the audience to hear (in this case it would help the video watchers). So, it seems like he is switching between 2 waveforms, at audio rate. In the case of a perfect square wave, you have equal parts of each wave. When you change the PW, you have “injections” of one wave into the other. Is my assessment correct?

or not of – sorry for the typo.
