Algorithms#

15 phase distortion algorithms: 1 CZ-101 legacy + 14 original Cosmo warp algorithms.

CZ-101 Legacy#

• CZ Saw Legacy -- Classic bright sawtooth. Waveform 1/2 options, Window control.
• CZ Square Legacy -- Hollow, reedy square wave.
• CZ Pulse Legacy -- Narrower than saw, buzzy. Brass-like.
• CZ Double Sine Legacy -- Soft, rounded. Two sine-like components.
• CZ Saw Pulse Legacy -- Saw brightness with pulse-width character.
• CZ Reso 1-3 Legacy -- Resonant, metallic tones with window function.
