Manufacturer's description
Warp Core is a stereo/dual-output complex oscillator designed for deep and uniquely digital timbral exploration. Unlike traditional oscillators, Warp Core does not produce perfect geometric wave shapes (triangle, saw, square, etc), but instead uses a digital synthesis technique called phase distortion to produce variably complex waveforms with rich harmonic content from a pure sine wave lookup table.
WC:EX is an optional 4hp Expander that converts it from a free-running oscillator to a dedicated stereo monosynth voice.
PHASE DISTORTION
The phase distortion engine features 8 different continuously variable algorithms assignable to two slots routed in series, for a total of 64 possible combinations. Because these algorithms are almost all nonlinear, in most cases different timbres will be produced when swapping the order of the selected algorithms.
PHASE MODULATION
Warp Core also features phase modulation pre- or post- phase distortion via an internal sine modulation oscillator with a configurable frequency ratio relative to the main oscillator. For even more phase modulation possibilities, there is also an audio-rate external PM input.
TONE THICKENING
Two configurable “thickness” parameters serve to reinforce the fundamental and/or sub-octave of the oscillator output and provide slight detuning on the 90° output for thicker stereo or unison sounds.
INNOVATIVE, PRECISE TUNING
Last but not least, Warp Core’s calibrated tuning controls enable quickly and easily tuning the oscillator to arbitrary frequencies or perfectly tuned (A=440Hz 12-TET) semitones in multiple octaves as well as locking the tuning knob to preserve perfect tuning for a live performance.
- Width: 12HP

- Standard shipping is free on orders over €100. Express shipping is available on orders over €100, and free on orders over €400.
Poland orders:
- Standard shipping is free on orders over 250 PLN. Express shipping is free on orders over 500 PLN.
What about local taxes?
By default prices on the site include sales tax at 20%. The precise sales tax rate for your country will be calculated at checkout.
Do you ship to my country?
We ship to all EU member states from our warehouse in Warsaw, Poland. Add an item to your cart and enter your country and postcode to see the available shipping options and prices for your location. If you have any questions about shipping to your country, drop us an email at info@signalsounds.eu and we'll be happy to help.
Shipping methods
All EU orders are shipped via UPS. We offer two service levels:
- UPS Standard – our default shipping option. Delivery times vary by country (see estimated delivery times below).
- UPS Express Saver – next business day delivery to most EU destinations.
Each product page shows the estimated delivery time for your location, so you'll always know what to expect before you order.
Estimated delivery times (Standard shipping)
The times below are estimates in working days from dispatch, based on UPS Standard service. Express Saver delivers by the next business day to most destinations.
| Country | Estimated delivery (working days) |
|---|---|
| Austria | 2–3 |
| Belgium | 2 |
| Bulgaria | 4–5 |
| Croatia | 2–4 |
| Cyprus | 10 |
| Czechia | 2–3 |
| Denmark | 3 |
| Estonia | 2–3 |
| Finland | 3–5 |
| France | 2–4 |
| Germany | 2 |
| Greece | 5–7 |
| Hungary | 2–3 |
| Ireland | 4–6 |
| Italy | 3–5 |

| Malta | 5–7 |
| Netherlands | 2 |
| Poland | 1–2 |
| Portugal | 4–5 |
| Romania | 3–4 |
| Slovakia | 2–3 |
| Slovenia | 2–3 |
| Spain | 4 |
| Sweden | 3–5 |
These times are estimates and are not guaranteed. Delivery may occasionally take a little longer due to customs processing, local conditions, or carrier delays.
Dispatch times
Orders placed before 15:00 CET (Central European Time) on a working day are normally dispatched the same day. Orders placed after 15:00 CET, or on weekends and public holidays, will be dispatched on the next working day.
If you have an urgent order, please email us at info@signalsounds.eu before placing your order and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch at info@signalsounds.eu if you have questions.
