Generate 3 is based on the fact that any signal can be represented through amazing parameters: frequency, phase, amplitude, and timbre. It is through modulation of these aspects that synthesists create electronic sound. With Generate 3, it is now possible to create a signal and control all its parameters by through-zero modulation.

The resultant triangle wave generated by Generate 3 is treated by the through-zero phase modulator, providing a total phase shift range of 900°. Phase modulation offers an interesting alternative for FM, as it enables deep FM-type tones without actually changing the oscillation frequency.

The resonance of a signal is prepared by its tuneful content. This full set of harmonics can be grouped into three main parts: the fundamental, even and odd harmonics. Generate 3’s harmonics generator separates out these three timbral ‘channels’. The amplitudes can be customized, each timbral channel supports through-zero amplitude modulation, also known as balanced or ring modulation. When audio-frequency modulation signals are applied, the harmonics become ‘split’, enriching the spectrum. In addition to all the common analog synthesis techniques, the comprehensive set of modulation options makes Generate 3 especially suited for exploring multiphonic synthesis. A monophonic source creating a complex timbre, much like throat singing, yet by electronic means.
