I do not have the SH01 Gaia yet, by I have a question:

-Is it possible to create a PWM patch routing the LFO1 to modualte PW (pulse width) of oscillator 1?

I could not see it on Manual.

Thanks.

No... LFO can only modulate pitch, filter and volume.

Hi Igor,
Thanks for the information. I was to decide between the Gaia and the EXB-Radias.

On the EXB-Radias it is possible to produce PWM routing the LFO1 to modualte PW (pulse width) of oscillator 1.

Thanks again.
Julio Cesar.

As has been pointed out Pulse Width is not a modulation destination however Phase Recorder recalls slider and rotary encoder automation.

UNLESS, of course, you own the "Deluxe Executive Version" of the GAIA.

If you're one of those lucky few, just look for the slider in the OSC section
marked PWM. (That=Pulse Width Modulation.) The word PWM will be in the
same blue font as the LFO section indicating that the LFO is the Source.

This information can also be found in the "Deluxe Executive Version" of the
GAIA manual on the bottom right of page 31.

Hi, where can be found the "Deluxe Executive Version" ? is it released for sales?

Hi Julio,

Thankfully, *ALL* SH-01 GAIAs have a dedicated PWM slider right there in the OSC section.

That's its only job. You don't even have to set anything up. Just push the slider named PMW
and you'll get PMW as long as you've selected the PMW WAVE (3rd one down) in OSC.

You can see a picture of the PWM slider (labeled PWM) on page 30 of the manual along with
a description of it on page 31 in a section called "[PWM] slider".

P.S. The LFO can also be assigned to *Panning* as well as Pitch, Filter, Amplitude, and PWM.

Hi Demon,
I have read the pag 31. Thanks for the explanation. So it is possible to have a nice pwm patch.

BTW, which LFO is applied to PWM ? LFO 1 or 2 ?

From Manual:
[ PWM] slider
If the [WAVE] button (p. 30) has selected (asymmetrical
square wave), you can use this slider to specify the amount
of LFO modulation applied to PW (pulse width).

Thanks.

The word PWM above the PWM slider has the same blue font as the
LFO section (just to the left of the OSC section) indicating that
this LFO is the Source for PWM.

There is obviously a PWM slider but you cannot modulate the PW slider.
