Learn Synthesis with Ableton Live S01E02 - Operator's oscillators, envelopes, filters, and LFO

In this episode we are going to learn some of the basic functions of the primary components in any synthesizer using the Ableton Live instrument called Operator. We will look at how the GUI for Operator is structured and where these primary components are. We will learn about oscillators, envelopes, filters, filters, and the LFO. Operator has 4 oscillators, multiple envelopes for different functions, one LFO that can be assigned to multiple destinations, and a filter that can be a destination of many other components. We will look at how these different components work together and some of the basics of how they are used to make sounds. For example, we will look at the ADSR envelope in detail and how to use the low pass filter to craft the frequency spectrum. This is some of the fundamental knowledge that one needs to know about what basic components in synthesis do and how they work in Operator.
