tone, and volume
Soundismadeupofthreebasicelements:pitch,tone,

elements.

OSC (oscillator) 1/2
TheOSC(oscillator)generatesthewaveformthatisthe
basisofthesound.OntheKROME,theoscillator
consistsofmultiplesampledsoundssuchasa
multisampleoradrumkit(drumsamples).
TheKROMEprovidestwooscillators;OSC1and
OSC2.Youcancreatemorecomplexprogramsby
combiningthese.
TheOSC,whichisthebasisofthesound,canbe
