Using the Oscillator

The 01V features a useful audio oscillator with 100 Hz, 1 kHz, and 10 kHz sine wave tones and pink noise and burst pink noise. It can be assigned to individual aux sends, bus outs, effects sends, or the stereo output, and is useful for calibration or diagnostic purposes.Assigning burst noise to an effects send is a convenient way to audition reverb settings.

1. Use the [UTILITY] button to locate UTILITY page 1, as shown below.

2.Use the cursor buttons to select the parameters, and the [ENTER] button, PARAMETER wheel, or [–1/DEC] and [+1/INC] buttons to set them.

ON/OFF—This switch is used to turn the oscillator on or off.

Note: To prevent sudden tone-burst surprises in your monitors or headphones, set the oscillator level, stereo output, aux sends, bus outs, or effects returns to a minimal level.

WAVEFORM—This switch is used to select the type of waveform generated by the oscillator: 100 Hz, 1 kHz, or 10 kHz sine wave tones, pink noise, or burst pink noise, which consists of 200 ms pulses at four second intervals.

LEVEL—This control is used to adjust the output level of the oscillator from 0 dB to –96 dB.

ASSIGN—These switches are used to assign the oscillator to individual aux sends, bus outs, effects sends, or the stereo output.

The Oscillator page also features level meters for the aux sends, bus outs, and effects returns.

When the oscillator is assigned to a bus, the oscillator signal has priority and other signals routed to that bus are muted.
