Wavefolder distortion. When the signal exceeds a threshold it folds back on itself instead of clipping, creating complex harmonic content.
Wavefolding is a synthesis technique popularized by Buchla and Serge synthesizers. Unlike clipping which flattens peaks, folding reflects them back, generating rich harmonic spectra especially strong in odd harmonics. Multiple folds produce increasingly complex timbres.
Bypasses the module processing when activated (ON).
Audio input flow(s).
Audio output flow(s).
Input gain applied before the folding stage. Higher values push the signal past the folding threshold more aggressively, producing more folds per cycle.
Number of folding iterations (1 to 8). Each additional fold reflects the signal an extra time, doubling the harmonic complexity. Low values (1-2) produce subtle timbral changes; high values (6-8) create metallic, bell-like textures.
Controls the folding threshold balance. At 0.5 the positive and negative folding thresholds are equal (symmetric folding). Lower values bias toward negative folds; higher values bias toward positive folds.
DC offset added to the signal before folding. At 0.5 no offset is applied. Moving away from center shifts the waveform relative to the folding threshold, producing asymmetric foldback patterns and even harmonics.
