00:11 Introduction
00:41 01 Sawtooth waves, closed tuned for phase cancellation
02:00 02 Square wave with long attack and release time
03:05 03 Square wave, PWM by LFO
03:37 04 Same as 03 but with two square waves, closed tuned for phase cancellation
04:34 05 Two sawtooth waves, low notes, 75% resonance
05:20 06 Same as 05 but with some VCO detuning to get a fatter sound
06:37 07 Square wave, PWM and LP/HP cutoff modulation by LFO
07:42 08 Two square waves, VCO2-PWM and LP/HP cutoff modulation by LFO
08:26 09 Square wave, HP cutoff modulation by LFO
09:21 10 Two square waves, PWM and HP modulation by LFO, fastest LFO rate
10:09 11 Square wave, BP filter, slow attack
11:10 12 Square wave, PWM by LFO at highest rate, BP filter
11:56 13 Saw wave, 100% resonance, BP cutoff modulated by LFO, slowest LFO rate
13:19 14 Square wave, BP filter, 100% resonance on GForce, less than 100% resonance on Oberheim
14:33 15 Same as 14, but Oberheim SEM filter gets into selfoscillation with 100% resonance
15:32 16 No VCO output, but still sound from the filter oscillation on the Oberheim SEM
15:55 17 Warm brassy single saw with no resonance
16:38 18 Same as 17 but with 100% resonance
17:16 19 Square wave with clean bright sound
17:58 20 Sync sound
18:50 21 A dark sound with LP filter and a little HP added for extra harmonics
19:59 22 Audio range filter modulation using VCO2 (Oberheim) or VCO3 (GForce), filter cutoff knob turned to the left.
20:53 23 Same as 23 but filter cutoff is now halfway open
21:51 24 Dark sound with VCO1 as fundamental and some VCO2 for added high frequencies
22:51 25 Clean sequence sound with PWM of VCO1 and some extra VCO2 in the high frequencies
23:34 26 Clean sequence with high keys
24:19 27 Last sequence with old school sound
25:20 28 My two cents
