There are several other kinds of sync which may also be called soft sync. In some usage, soft sync means a sync intended to nudge and lock the slave oscillator into the same or an integer or fractional multiple of the master oscillator frequency when they both have similar phases.<ref>Synth-diy:[http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/pipermail/synth-diy/2009-August/019132.html 2009, Aug, 019132]</ref><ref>Synth-diy:[http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/pipermail/synth-diy/2009-August/019136.html 2009, August, 019136]</ref>

For digital implementation, note that none of the Threshold or Weak sync methods actually synthesize the waveform in a way different from Hard sync (rather, they selectively deactivate it).

Overlap sync is primarily a digital technique with simple implementation, such as used in [[formant wave-function synthesis]] (''fonction d'onde formantique'' or FOF).<ref>www.gersic.com:[http://www.gersic.com/dspwiki/index.php?title=Physical_Modeling_Synthesis Physical Modeling Synthesis]</ref> An analog implementation could be a highly damped sine oscillator excited by the reset pulse.
