What is Harmonic Content Morphing (HCM)?

We analyzed the spectras of natural instruments and synthesizer sounds, to produce harmonic content snapshots of various sounds which have been included in the synthesizer as spectrum-tables. Each snapshot in a spectrum--table is equivalent to a traditional single oscillator waveform, and each spectrum-table has 256 snapshots. Warlock includes 84 spectrum-tables. In total more than 14.000 spectra are contained. The spectrum-tables can be used just like traditional waveforms in subtractive synths, but then you can:

- Modify the spectrum-table by changing the harmonic structure of the sound. You can make the sound become warm or sharp or silky or stack harmonics…
- Control the playback of snapshots in each spectrum-table, over a chosen time period. In other words, you can alter the sound over time.

Spectrum Modifier

Each spectrum-table can be altered with 25 different modifier-algorithms. The modifier alters the harmonic structure of the sound.
You can choose from the following modifiers:

- Off: No spectral modification occurs
- Mix Octave: Mix with one octave up
- Mix X4: Mix with two octaves up
- Mix Layer: Mix with a layer of octaves
- Hollow: Sets all even harmonics to 0, to give a tone like a square waveform
- Bell: Bell sound harmonics, similar to sounds that can be derived from FM synthesis
- Warm: Makes sound warmer and more bassy
- Shrink: Shrinks the spectrum and results in a warmer sound
- Spread: Makes sound sharper with more treble
- Shift up: Moves all harmonics up, resulting ion a brighter sound
- Silky: Makes the waveform sound more silky, soft and noisy
- Multi 1: Sounds like several waves are playing at once for a thicker sounds
- Multi 2: Sounds like several waves are playing at once for a thicker sound
- Multi Flange1: Adds a flange effect to the sound
- Multi Flange2: Another flanger-like sound
- Multi Hyper1: Sounds like several noisy waves are playing at once
- Multi Hyper2: Sounds like several noisy waves are playing at once
- Filter LP down: Low pass filter with falling cutoff
- Noise: Adds noise
- Time: Rotate spectrum in time
- Time Chaos: Rotate spectrum in time with silky sound
- Sync: Provides a sync-like sound, similar to the oscillator-sync function found in some substractive synthesizers

Partials

With this knob you can define how many partials are contained in the spectrum. If you set it to 1 only a sine wave will remain. Low values result in a warm and organ-like sound. High values give a bright sound.

Loop Mode & Loop Speed

Loopmode offers 18 different ways how the spectrum-tables can be played back:
You can play them forward (+), backward (-), jump to random positions (?), stop the loop or do any combination of these.

Loopspeed defines how fast the morphing is performed. It defines the time it takes to cycle through the spectrum.
- auto: Tries to automatically detect the best loopspeed
- Hz: A fixed loopspeed, in Hertz.
- BPM: Host synced loopspeed. BPM*2 Means the loopspeed will be twice the hosts BPM rate.
- Key follow: The higher the note, the faster the cycling speed.


Ring Modulation

Warlock comes with a special oscillator for ring-modulation. RING controls the tuning of this oscillator. RING MIX defines the volume of the ring-modulation. Ring-modulation shifts the frequency spectrum of the oscillator and generates additional harmonics.

Envelopes

The VOLUME section is used to control volume characteristics like Volume, Velocity sensitivity, Volume-Envelope Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release.
Warlock also offers an auxilary envelope called ENV. It can be used to control various parameters like pitch, ring-modulation, partials, resonace,...
It allows you to modulate parameters with audio-rate speed.

Hypersaw & Stack Mode

Warlock offers two oscillator-blocks. Each one again can contain up to 10 detuned hypersaw-oscillators and a sub-oscillator.
We've expanded the popular hypersaw concept with a stereo-processing, precise phase-control and the ability to make single oscillators play chords.
Warlock offers true stereo-oscillators and very wide sound. Unlike conventional synthesizers, the Hypersaws in Warlock are phase-optimized. This means that the amount of beating is minimized statistically. As a result, you get a sound that does not suffer from huge gain-peaks and has more pressure. You also do not have to care about the mono-compatibility of your mix any longer.
Classic Hypersaws are limited to sawtooths. In Warlock you can combine this mode with any kind of waveform or spectrum-table.

37 different modes are available:

- 1x mono - Single osc. This is the classic mode which is used by conventional synthesizers.
- 2x / 3x / 5x / 7x / 9x mono - Several detuned mono-oscs are stacked.
- 2x / 4x / 6x / 8x / 10x stereo - Several detuned stereo-oscs are stacked.
- 2:1 mono octave: Two detuned oscs are stacked. The second osc plays one octave higher.
- 2:1 stereo octave: Four detuned stereo oscs are stacked. The second pair plays one octave higher.
- 3:1 / 4:1 / 3:2 / 5:2 / 4:3 / 5:3 / 5:4 mono: Two detuned oscs are stacked to play a chord.
- 3:1 / 4:1 / 3:2 / 5:2 / 4:3 / 5:3 / 5:4 stereo: Four detuned oscs are stacked to play a stereo-chord.
- 1:2:3 / 1:2:4 / 1:2:3:4 / 1:2:4:8 mono: Several oscs with different octaves are stacked.
- 1:2:3 / 1:2:4 / 1:2:3:4 / 1:2:4:8 stereo: Several stereo-oscs with different octaves are stacked.
- Autochord 2x: Plays a chord with 2 keys. The second osc plays a minor or major third higher.
- Autochord 3x: Plays a chord with 3 keys.

Breathy / Noisy

Makes the sound noisy and can create a breathy, voice-like sound.
It can be combined with any kind of waveform, spectrum-table or hypersaw.

Filters

Warlock comes with a powerful filter-section. Our synthesizer offers 38 exciting filter types and true stereo-architechture.

- 6 different lowpass filter types (LP), digital and analog with self-oscillation.
- 2 highpass filter types (HP).
- 4 different bandpass filte types (BP).
- Notch filter.
- Low Shelf: Boosts low frequencies.
- High Shelf: Boosts high frequencies.
- Phaser: Sounds like a phaser-effect-unit.
- M-Shape: A combined low- and highpass.
- Resampler: A lo-fi effect that sounds like a cheap digital device.
- Aliaser: A lo-fi effect that mirrors frequencies and sounds disharmonic.
- FM: Frequency-modulation with various waveforms.
- Ringmod: Various ring-modulation modes.
- Fractal: A noisy and chaotic filter.
- EQ peak: These modes boost the frequencies around cutoff.
- Resonator: A comb-filter useful for effect sounds.
- Vocal: Several vocal-filters that sound like the human voice.

Many filter-types are exclusive and not available from other companies, which results in a wide range of unique sounds that cannot be produced by other synthesizers. All filters are musical useful and have really different sonic characteristics.
An animated display shows the frequency-response and gives you immediate visual feedback. This makes it very easy to understand and tweak the filter-behavior.
The DRIVE knob is used to adjust the amount of signal that is being fed into a distortion module (per voice).

LFO

Warlock has and LFOs with 20 different waveforms and BPM-sync.
You can modulate all important parameters with audio-rate speed.
If you route the LFO to Volume it can also be used as a Trancegate.

Arpeggiator / Gate

Warlock comes with an easy-to-use, but powerful Arpeggiator. It offers 22 play-modes and 28 rhythmic-patterns.

The following modes are available:

Up / Down / Alternate with 0, 1, 2 or 3 octaves:
The arpeggiator plays each of the keys being pressed in order, and with an increasing octave range.
Larger octave values will cause the arpeggiator pattern to cover a larger ranges of notes.

Gate:
Rhythmically triggers a complete chord at once.

1 Finger:
These types automatically play a chord in the key chosen.

Random Button

The random-button can generate an unlimited number of unheard but musically useful patches!
Unlike the random functions of conventional synthesizers this button rarely creates garbage. We implemented a special 'artificial intelligence' that generates really good and unique results.

"Big sound, lots of power, flexible, easy, little price. A powerful, feature-packed synth with a smooth workflow. Grunt, diversity, ease of use and amazing sound quality. It's all creative and very quick. Lovely ability to come up with new sounds, easily. This synth delivers more than pretty much any synth of its price (and more than many costing a heck of a lot more). Rating: 90%"

"Warlcok impresses with its characteristic sound and straightforward operation. An extremely flexible Hypersaw function and a stereo option provide wide, fat sounds. Warlock offers an independent concept for creating assertive and punchy sounds of any kind. The synthesizer is easy to use, despite its complex possibilities. At a price of $69, you can't go wrong here! Rating: 93%"
