can combine all six oscillators to make a single tone. You get two
virtual analog style oscillators, two PCM oscillators, one noise
oscillator, and one external oscillator for use with line and mic
inputs. Each oscillator has their own filter, portamento, envelopes, key
tracking, a master resonant filter, and two LFOs. The XW-G1 is an
extremely powerful synth that lets you really edit and tweak each
setting. You also have access to the original CZ synthesizer's
waveforms.
