Overview

A port of Mutable Instruments’ Tides — a tidal wave generator that lives somewhere between an oscillator, an LFO, and a function generator. Shape and slope morph the waveform, and the module runs free as a looping oscillator or fires as an AD / AR envelope when triggered. Output modes cycle through amplitude, phase, frequency, and gate flavours.

Control Pin Function
POT1 A0 Shape (waveform shape 0–1)
POT2 A1 Slope (falling → rising ramp)
POT3 A2 Frequency (20–2000 Hz)
IN1 D5 In — Trigger / gate
IN2 D0 In — Smoothness modulation
BTN D4 Short = output mode · long = ramp mode
OUT D7 Out — PWM audio (48 kHz, 16-bit)
LED 13 Feedback

Features

  • Looping oscillator or AD / AR envelope (long-press ramp modes)
  • Output modes: amplitudes, phases, frequencies, gates
  • Continuous shape and slope morphing
  • 48 kHz, 16-bit PWM output
