As you can see, the Q consists of two different types of components for sound generation and sound
shaping:
• Oscillators, Ring Modulator, Noise Generator, External Audio Signal, Mixer, Filters,
Amplifier, Effects:
These modules represent the audio signal flow. Sound generation actually occurs within
the Oscillators. They produce square, sawtooth, triangular, sine and alternative
waveforms. The Mixer follows the Oscillators in the signal chain, which is where the
Oscillators’ output signals are mixed. Noise or signals received through the audio inputs
can also be added to the mix. The Filter then shapes the sound by amplifying (boosting) or
attenuating (dampening) certain frequencies. The Amplifier and the Effects are located at
the end of the signal chain. They determine the overall volume of the signal and add some
effects like chorus, flanger, delay, reverb etc.
• LFO, Envelopes, Modifiers, Modulation Matrix:
These modules are called Modulators. The Modulators are designed to manipulate or
modulate the sound generating components to add dynamics to sounds. The Low-
frequency Oscillators (LFO) are designed for periodic or recurring modulations while
