Audio Mod: 0...127 —

Controls the amount of audio from Oscillator 1 used to

modulate the filter cutoff frequency. For filter-only audio, set O

SCILLATOR

M

IX

to 127, O

SCILLATOR

2

S

HAPE

to Off, and O

SCILLATOR

1

S

HAPE

to the desired

waveshape. This is useful for bell-like FM sounds. A wide range of sounds can
also be made using A

UDIO

M

OD

with the oscillators routed normally through the

filter.

Config: 2 Pole, 4 Pole —

Selects either 2- or 4-pole operation for the filter.

Envelope Amount: -127…+127 —

Sets the amount of filter envelope routed to

the cutoff frequency. This can be positive or negative, allowing inverted
envelope control of the filter.

Envelope Velocity: 0…127 —

Amount of key velocity controlling the level of

the filter envelope.

Delay: 0...127 —

Sets a delay between the time the filter envelope is triggered

and when the Attack portion actually begins.

Attack: 0…127 —

Sets the Attack time of the filter ADSR envelope generator.

Decay: 0…127 —

Sets the Decay time.

Sustain: 0…127 —

Sets the Sustain level.

Release: 0…127 —

Sets the Release time.

VCA Parameters

VCA Level: 0…127 —

Sets a base level for the VCA (Voltage Controlled

Amplifier). This allows the VCA to be essentially bypassed, which is necessary
for Programs that drone.

Note: If VCA L

EVEL

is on full, Envelope Amount has no effect. You

normally want VCA L

EVEL

set to zero. For droning sounds you will

probably turn the VCA Level up.

Env Amount: 0…127 —

Sets the amount of VCA envelope to the VCA level.

Env Velocity: 0…127 —

Sets the amount of keyboard velocity controlling the

level of the VCA envelope.

Delay: 0...127 —

Sets a delay between the time the amplifier envelope is

triggered and when the Attack portion actually begins.

Attack: 0…127 —

Sets the Attack time of the VCA ADSR envelope generator.
