A wavefolder is like sonic spice—it takes a simple waveform, like a sine or triangle wave, and transforms it into a rich, peppery, complex waveform full of harmonics and character. This is achieved through a process where the peaks of the waveform are “folded” back onto themselves, doubling, quadrupling and further folding the waveform depending on the wavefolder range. They’re versatile tools that can drastically alter the timbre of a sound.
