Module: Silver

Contour
control
button
The filter unit of the silver can be
modulated either by an ADSR envelope
defined in shaper 3 (filter envelope, not
available for freq FX/time FX) or by a
previously recorded movement of the stick
controller (also available for freq FX/time
FX).
By pressing this button several times, you
can select between:
• Off (no LED lights up): Neither an
envelope nor a stick recording
manipulates the filter or freq FX/timeFX.
• Shaper 3: The ADSR envelope in the
selected shaper is assigned to the current
filter type. Note that the Silver LED in the
shaper must light up before you can
define the envelope. To learn how to
define the envelope and adjust the
intensity of its effect via the depth knob,
read page 153.
• Stick animation: The stick movement
previously recorded via record stick (see
the previous line in the table) is played
back in 1shot or repeat mode, depending
on the stick animation setting in the silver
menu (see page 148).

Filter
button
Defines the filter type (press repeatedly).
• 12db: 12 dB low-pass filter
• 24dB: 24 dB low-pass filter.
• Special: 6 dB low-pass or 6 dB high-pass
or band-pass filter (adjustable via menu
or by stepping through the special filter).
The special LED indicates all three
settings.
Freq FX
button
Switches the frequency effects processor
off/on. Select the desired effect in the
silver menu (page 136).
Time FX
button
Switches the time effects processor off/on.
Select the desired effect in the silver menu
(page 137).
Surround
button
Strictly speaking, surround mode is not a
feature of the silver module. However,
because the stick controller determines the
position of the individual surround
channels in the soundscape (the silver stick
is a dual-purpose tool) the surround button
is located near the stick.
Beyond that, surround mode also adds a
lustrous sheen to your sonic creations, so it
is in a sense a sidekick of the silver...
To learn more about this, read the section
"Surround mode" starting on page 169.
