Just got my first synth. Is this normal?

Hi everyone,

I just got my first synthesizer, a Novation Bass Station 2 and I love it.This machine is great! So many possibilities.

However, I noticed that when using both OSC1 and OSC2, there is a slight change in timbre over time when playing different notes. Almost like there is some LFO modulation stuff going on. This does not happen if i stay on the same note. And it does not happen if I am using a single oscillator.

Is this normal? If so, could someone explain to me why that is?

Here is a recording I made playing C and G:

This is using the init patch. Just added OSC2 by turning the knob to 100% in the mixer. Also cut off some of the highs to save your ears Smile (it happens when the filter is all the way up too)
