<div dir="ltr">Hi Jean, nice to meet and thanks for your help. I'm still having a hard time figuring this out. Let's try separate examples for both phase mod and sync, how about that?<div><br></div><div>What puzzles me is the sync argument of SinOsc, it's not clear how it works, and I haven't found a good description or examples of it in the documentation. Maybe there is some and I missed it.</div><div><br></div><div>So, I was trying to do either phase modulation or hard sync, and couldn't do it. Allow me to simplify your code and then I'll ask more questions.</div><div><br></div><div><br class="gmail-Apple-interchange-newline">// ==========================<br></div><div>
