176 Chapter 9-Component Guide Part II Oscillator The Oscillator component offers a useful 10 Hz to 20 kHz sine wave oscillator, with 100 Hz, 1 kHz, and 10 kHz presets, pink noise, and burst pink noise. It can be patched into a system as and where needed and is convenient for calibration and diagnostic purposes. Burst pink noise is also useful for auditioning reverb settings. The Oscillator component has one output. The Oscillator control window features a WAVEFORM section, frequency control section, and output level control. In addition to dragging the FREQ control, frequencies can be specified using the computer keyboard. Simply select the value below the FREQ control using the mouse, enter a value from the keyboard, and then press the Enter key. The new value is set and the FREQ control moves to its new position. The Oscillator component parameters are explained in the following table. Parameter Range Description WAVEFORM LEVEL ON/OFF 100Hz 1kHz 10kHz PINK BURST FREQ -Infinity dB to 0.0 dB ON/OFF 100 Hz sine wave 1 kHz sine wave 10 kHz sine wave Pick noise Pink noise bursts (200 ms pulses at 4 second intervals) Variable sine wave frequency from 10 Hz to 20 kHz Adjusts the oscillator's output level Turns the oscillator on and off Note: When using the oscillator, be careful with volume levels-nobody likes sudden loud noises, or worse, speaker damage.
