RND Destination
Some aspects of your sound may already be ideal for the sound you had in mind. As
such, it may not be desirable to alter them. Say your sound setting has a nice
percussiveness, and you’d like to try a few sonic color variations while retaining this
percussive feel. To avoid the random variation of any attack times, you can restrict the
variation to the oscillator or filter parameters, with the envelope parameters excluded
from the variation process. To do so, set the RND Destination to Waves or Filters.
Please note:
 The Master Level, Filter Bypass as well as the three Oscillator On/Off parameters and
the Vector/Router display options are never randomized.
Â
During randomizations of the vector envelope, the Solo Point will always be set to off
.
You can restrict the random sound variation to the parameter groups listed below:
All
All ES2 parameters, with the exception of the parameters mentioned above, will be
altered.
All except Router and Pitch
All ES2 parameters, with the exception of all Router parameters and the basic pitch
(semitone settings of the oscillators), will be altered. The oscillator fine tuning will be
varied. This will result in more musically useful sounds.
All except Vector Env
All ES2 parameters, with the exception of all vector envelope parameters, will be
altered. This maintains the rhythmic feel of a given setting.
Waves
Only the Wave and Digiwave parameters of the Oscillators will be altered. The other
Oscillator parameters (tuning, mix, and modulations in the Router) are excluded.
DigiWaves
Digiwaves will be selected in all Oscillators. The Digiwave number will be altered. The
other oscillator parameters (tuning, mix, and modulations in the Router) are excluded.
Filters
The filter parameters are varied. The parameters included are: Filter Structure (series or
parallel wiring), Blend, Filter Mode, Cutoff Frequency, and Resonance for Filter 1 and 2,
Fatness, Filter FM of Filter 2.
Envs
All envelope parameters of all three envelopes ENV 1, ENV 2 and ENV 3 are varied. The
vector envelope is excluded.
