hello

in zebra 3 public beta

how do i modulate the pitch of osc1 using output of fmo1?
i understand I'm suppose to drag the output from fmo1 to pitch knob on osc1 but i cant find where to drag it from

meaning where the output of fmo1 , there is no fmo1 page at the lower part of the plugin

please let me know

I don't think you can? In the other order you can, just put Osc1 before Fmo1 in a lane. But I don't think the spline oscillators take audio rate FM. Unless I'm missing something.

The main oscillators in Zebra 3 currently don't offer a mode that takes audio input for any kind of audio rate modulation.

It's not entirely off the table, but it won't happen initially. Maybe in a subsequent update.

ok i think i understand

"The main oscillators in Zebra 3 currently don't offer a mode that takes audio input for any kind of audio rate modulation."

so i cant as of right now make a simple fm patch? meaning opening 2 oscillators and and frequency modulating the pitch of one of them using the other one?

There are FMOs for that FMO = FM Oscillator.

You can use a normal Oscillator as a Modulator and the FMO as a Carrier, but not the other way round.

can you give me a simple example of how to do that?

Here you go, it's super easy:

I really would like to see it one day (far more than an arpeggiator :wink: )
