Description
Split Synthesis (Original Youtube link below) creates a new waveform using the Bottom half (-1 ... 0) of one Oscillator and the Top half (0 ... 1) of a second Oscillator.
In this case, the Top and Bottom consists of 3 Operator (8 waveforms), Phase Modulation oscillators with 5 Algorithms and 12 note Polyphony.
Note: The last two Algorithms replace Addition with Multiplication. Consequently both Index values need to be nonzero to hear the effect.
I've enhanced it with modifications from Electronic Music and Sound Design, Vol 3 and made the Split point adjustable (up/down between -1 ... 1).
