Description

WAVE is a hybrid wave terrain and waveshaping effect for creating gnarly distortion and destructive timbres. The left and right input channel are convolved together to create lissajous figures over a complex wave terrain, which the user can specify the area of. A "de-phase" parameter can make mono inputs work better. The output will always be mono.
