Algorithm

The algorithm screen allows you to select how the six oscillators are connected. This screen is one of the most important part of the cross-fusion synthesis system that BLUE offers.

For instance in the preset "Cjung's Dream" , which you can find in bank 01_Diverse 04. Here algorithm 4 is used. Oscillator A is used in a subtractive manner with PWM modulation and this routed into Filter A using a 12dB BandPass filter. Osc C, D & E modulate Osc F using FM modulation and Oscillator F output is then routed into FX A.

In the screen, at the top is shown the current algorithm, the buttons < > allows you to scroll through the different path algorithms.

Alternatively in the algorithm screen, right clicking (or control-click on Mac) on the screen brings up the algorithm selection menu.

In the screen itself are shown the 6 oscillators A to F, and how they connect. If there is a line from one oscillator to another then the first oscillator modulates the second one. If there is a line from an oscillator to the output line, then that oscillator is output, i.e. you can hear it.

For instance in algorithm 2, the setup is AB C-F DE, this means that A, B, D & E are output, C modulates F and then F is output as sound.

If you select another algorithm in the oscillator section its "destination" boxes are automaticly updated.
