Question about oscillator numbers

I ntoice that in some of the preset in the factory bank, some oscillator numbers are skipped. For example, in Wavesequenced Pad 03, oscillators 2 and 3 aren't used. Is there any particular reason to skip an oscillator and use one with a higher number?

No reason really. Daniel could confirm that since he wrote that preset, but looking at that preset, I see there are some envelopes for osc 2 and 3. My guess is that at some time, he used oscillators 2 and 3, and later he changed his mind and disabled them.
In any case, it won't change anything in terms of sound or cpu usage.

'Tick is correct; Those osc's were once used at an early point in programming that sound. However, to reduce CPU load they were disabled. Before the 2.0 release no easy way existed of duplicating all of the parameters so I left them seperated. This will not in any way reduce performance.
