17 ES M
The monophonic ES M (ES Mono) is a good starting point if
you’re looking for bass sounds that punch through your mix.
The ES M compact synthesizer features an automatic fingered portamento mode,
making bass slides easy. It also features an automatic filter compensation circuit that
delivers rich, creamy basses, even when using higher resonance values. All ES M
parameters are discussed in the following section.
 8, 16, 32 buttons: Set the ES M’s octave transposition.
 Glide knob: The ES M permanently works in a fingered portamento mode, with notes
played in a legato style resulting in a glide (portamento) from pitch to pitch. The
speed of the glide is set with the Glide parameter. At a value of 0, no glide effect
occurs.
 Mix knob: Crossfades between a sawtooth wave and a 50% rectangular wave, which
is heard one octave lower.
 Cutoff knob: Sets the cutoff frequency of the resonance-capable dynamic lowpass
filter. Its slope is 24 dB/Octave.
 Resonance knob: Sets the resonance of the dynamic lowpass filter. Increasing the
Resonance value results in a rejection of bass (low frequency energy) when using
lowpass filters. The ES M compensates for this side-effect internally, resulting in a
more bassy sound.
 Int knob: The ES M features two very simple envelope generators with a single Decay
parameter. Int enables modulation of the cutoff frequency by the filter envelope.
