Translation: SYNTH2 can tweak the pitch of SYNTH1. To my knowledge, I haven't seen an example of this, but it sounds very powerful.By using the audio generated by SYNTH2 to apply high-speed modulation to the frequency (pitch) of the SYNTH1 oscillator, you can create sounds that have a complex overtone structure. To edit the cross modulation sound, you must first create a rhythm pattern for SYNTH1 and SYNTH2, and edit the sound while the pattern plays back.
Combinations other than SYNTH1 and SYNTH2 cannot be used. In some cases, the timing of when SYNTH1 and SYNTH2 sound may affect the tonal character or the volume.

iElectribe: the mysterious power of CROSS
Today at lunch I finished reading the iElectribe manual. In particular, I wanted to understand what the mysterious CROSS button does. Here is what the manual says:
Yeah, its basically FM or PM (Phase Modulation).
Output waveform of Synth2 controlling the pitch of Synth1.

Wow! I can remember when I got my shiney new ESX I spent the first day with it in my lap while I read the manual from cover to cover. I failed entirely to read the manual for the iElectribe and that little tip is a gem I completely over-looked! Thanks for drawing my attention to that, going to go FM something crazy now!
