Oscillator Section:
The heart of Go2-X is the morph oscillator, this oscillator allows you to morph (using Go2-X's various morph modes) between two different waveforms.
- First and Second Waveforms (Wave-A and Wave-B)
- Oscillator Morph Mode. The Morph Mode menu determines how the oscillator combines the two waves First Wave and Second Wave.
- The Morph modes are Mix, Morph, Low Partial Morph, High Partial Morph, Odd/Even Partial Morph, Even/Odd Partial Morph, Table Interpolate, Table Split, Table Combine, FM, PM, AM, Ring Mod, WaveShaper, and Range.
- Spread (creates a stacked 2 oscillator sound)
- Sub. The sub-oscillator knob lets you select two different waveforms being sinus or square..
- Sym (Sym controls the symmetry of the oscillator waveform)
- SMOD (Symmetry Modulation) Amount
- Symmetry modulation controls how much the symmetry position changes over time.
- SMOD (Symmetry Modulation) SpeedSmod Speed sets the frequency of the LFO that changes the symmetry position.
- Additional Spectrum waveforms
XY Section
The XY pad is a combination of a live, interactive control, and also an automated programmable modulation source
XY Controls
- Edit (While in Edit mode, you can move the path's points around and thus edit the XY Path manually).

- Modes: Poly, Free or Mono
- Loop modes: off, loop or bidirectional loop
- Sync To (Tempo sync the XY movement)
- Points (from 2 points up to 128 points)
- Space Quantize (Space Quantize restricts the points in the current path to a set of grid lines)
- Time Quantize (Time Quantize sets the update frequency of the XY position)
- Draw Osc (the XY screen also shows the current oscillator output if you like)
- Commands (XY Menu with the many additional options like the preset path).
Filter Section
Analog-modeled filter.
- Cutoff Frequency
- Q (Resonance)

Play Mode Section
Arranges how Go2-X plays its engine and additional features and settings can be found in this section.
- Play Modes: Poly (16voice), Poly MPE, Mono, Mono High, Mono Low, Legato, Legato High, Legato Low, and Arpeggiator
- Portamento with Speed control, Rate or Time Mode, Held Rate or Held Time mode
- Port Amount
- Unison and chords
In Unison mode, Go2-X plays up-to 4 unison voices, for each note played. This works at an Oscillator / Filter level, so you can still play up to 16 voices in poly mode. - Unison modes and chords:
Unison 2-4
2 Octave
3 Octave
2 SP
Major to Diminished 7th chord (3voice and 4 voice)
Unison Detune Amount
Unison Stereo Spread - Pitch Bend Up / Down (The unit used is semi-tones)
- Drift On/Off When this is on the oscillator has 'analog drift' i.e. it has a very slight & slow drifting of tuning over time.
- Exp Env (Selects if the envelope's decay/release stages are linear or have an exponential characteristic).
WAVE section
- Two user waves can be created in each Go2-X preset
- Modes to create are Draw or Partials with the option of 'exponential'
- Draw, Line, and Erase options
- Shaper option available with different modes
- Additional control options and the option to save and load a waveform
Arpeggiator section
Go2-X offers a classic style Arpeggiator with some unique features, like sequencer mode and unison/chord control per step.
- The Arpeggiator has up to 16 steps. Per step you can set the following values:
Step On/Off
Tie (Tie note)
Slide
Tune
Vel
Unison/Cjprd
Free
Ratcheting - Steps (number of Steps 1-16)
- Dynamic catch-up modes for the Step numbers.being odd, even, or all
- Loop Modes are On, Off, PingPong
- Dynamic catch-up modes for the Loop start point being odd, even, or all
