It may sound like more than two parts because each synth has a looped delay (echo) effect. Sine Synth does so by generating randomly changing levels of harmonics played by 32 sinewave oscillators. Random Timbre Synth does so by generating random waveshapes and pan morphing to the next one on MIDI clock. letters to produce aleatoric texts that, despite being reordered.
