It's definitely a lab because experimentation is key. The Voltage Lab 2 encourages you to dig a little deeper every time. Pittsburgh Modular have got this one bang on... the results are stunning.
The oscillators can sounds as grungy as you want. Those harmonics just keep on coming until you're faced with a sonic wall of jagged spikes. The temptation is to go over the top, whereas with most it's hard to get 20% there.
In this I demo some of the more hidden functions and give some ideas to get the most out of it. Like patching the ocillators into each other, or using the function generators to control the LPG essentially giving us a 'standard' VCF. Then there's some hidden stuff in the touch controller, like per step parameter locking using the blue CV channel, or per step chance by setting the chance to 100% and patching chance into the blue channel... now the blue CV is per step chance.
Cool stuff.

I've made wavetables of the oscillators - 52 in all, sampled at 2048 samples per cycle and 128 samples per twist of the big knob.
