I get you - but I kinda read this as operators processed by the shaping within the engine to achieve wavetable like timbres as opposed to expressly referencing different wavetables - I may be wrong, nothing in the open text to back up my theory, it’s a hunch and I’m admittedly late to the DN party too - but whilst the info there sorta states what you said, I’m still of the opinion that the four single operators are deployed and reshaped - so it’s more an additive synthesis I’m proposing than a wavetable one
you could well be and are most likely right and you’re taking a more credible assumption of the text than I - but I’m thinking about how it has sounded based on my (not sure where from) assumptions - okay, now I’m confused, because I’m internally mixing up DN aspects with MC aspects (bought both at a similar time), the DN does have an additive dimension that the user has control over and I’ve no knowledge of that in the MC
for some reason I’m sure the chord machines are formed upon the operators and modulated, but I’m clearly wrong especially given the explanation from the source that you recalled ( I had read it but it didn’t stick, interesting, I’ll need to listen through them with a fresh ear - I always found them to be very fundamental sounding)
what day is it anyway I’m even more confused - I did have pretty bad insomnia last night so … my bad I thinks
