Wave Folding

Fold the waveform back on itself for complex harmonics:

"sine" s 2 fold .    ( moderate folding )
"sine" s 4 fold .    ( aggressive folding )

Wave Wrap

Wrap the waveform for a different flavor of distortion:

"bass" s 0.5 wrap .

Distortion

Classic overdrive/distortion:

"guitar" s 0.5 distort .     ( distortion amount )
"guitar" s 0.8 distortvol .  ( output volume )
