Mutable Instruments - Warps
The Mutable Instruments - Warps is a selection of high-quality and decent sounding digital algorithms that are based on the "carrier-modulator" sound-processing concept: a selection of interesting ring and amplitude modulation patterns and also a built-in oscillator and vocoder will give you a lot and teach you a lot about the often forgotten side of sound-processing applications. ÿ

Meta-modulator
Overview
Evolved from the oscillator mixing section of Mutable Instruments’ desktop hybrid synths, Mutable Instruments - Warps is designed to blend and combine two audio signals. A variety of wave-shaping and cross-modulation methods – some of them emulating classic analog circuits, some of them purely digital – are provided by the module.
With Warps, the cross-modulated sound can be sculpted with control voltages along 4 dimensions: by controlling the amplitude and distorting the input signals, by smoothly scanning through the collection of modulation algorithms, and by adjusting a timbre parameter controlling the brightness/harshness of the modulated signal.
Since many classic cross-modulation effects work best when the carrier is a simple waveform – for example, a sine wave for ring-modulation or a buzzing waveform for vocoding – Warps includes a digital oscillator offering a handful of classic waveforms. This internal oscillator, which tracks V/Oct and supports through-zero FM, will replace the carrier audio input – freeing up one oscillator in your system for other duties!
