8.5.3 2-POLE SWITCH
• This switch controls the conguration of poles used in the VCF. The number
of poles used in the lter determines the angle of the lters slope/response
curve.
The VCF uses 4-poles, but can be switched into 2-pole operation. If
congured for 4-pole operation the low-pass lter rolls o signals above
the cut-o frequency at a rate of 24 dB/octave. When congured for 2-pole
operation the low-pass lter rolls o signals above the cut-o frequency at
a rate of 12 dB/octave.
This can be useful to control the sonic character of the lter, as the 2-pole
mode will allow more of the signal above the cut-o frequency to pass and
sound brighter / more natural. The 4-pole mode allows less of the signal
above the cut-o frequency to pass and sounds deeper/ more unusual.
The 2-POLE conguration can be On (2-Pole) or O (4-Pole). The default
program setting is O (4-Pole).

8.5.4 VCF EDIT SWITCH
1. To access the VCF menu press the VCF EDIT switch.
2. The VCF EDIT switch will then start ashing and the VCF PARAMETERS menu
is then shown:
3. To navigate the options in the VCF PARAMETERS menu, use the BANK/UP or
BANK/DOWN switches.
4. Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the
rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which
allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the
full range.
The following options are available in the VCF PARAMETERS menu:
• BASS-BOOST - This option engages an analog bass boost circuit. This setting
follows the setting of the BOOST switch below the HPF Fader.
• VELOCITY-SENS - This option controls how much the velocity at which you
strike the keys will aect how much VCF envelope modulation is applied.
The harder you strike the keys, the more the lter will open and the brighter
the sound will become (unless the operation is inverted using the INVERT
switch).
The VELOCITY-SENS range is from 0 to 255, and the default setting is 128.
• P.BEND-FREQ - This option controls how much the PITCH BEND WHEEL
position will aect the cut-o frequency. The further you move the wheel
forward from its central position, the more the lter will open and the
brighter the sound will become, the further you move the wheel backward
from its central position, the more the lter will close, and the darker the
sound will become.
The P.BEND-FREQ range is from 0 to 255, and the default setting is 128.
• LFO-SELECT - This option allows you to select which LFO is assigned to the
VCF LFO MODULATION FADER, either LFO 1 or LFO 2.
The default setting is LFO 2, which allows you to use LFO 1 for voice
modulation and keep the functionality separated. You can use the same LFO
to modulate the OSC and VCF if you desire.
• AFT-LFO-DEPTH - This option controls how much the AFTERTOUCH pressure
will increase the LFO MODULATION DEPTH. This allows you to add LFO
modulation of the lter frequency expressively while you play.
The AFT-LFO-DEPTH range is from 0 to 255, and the default setting is 0.
