Resonator 1,2 and 3
The three Resonator algorithms contain formant filter tables that simulate various body resonances (multi-
peak+notch filters). Set the position in the formant tables with the Freq knob and the resonance with the Reso
knob.
Envelope 4
This is a special mode where you can manually draw your own filter curve in the Envelope 4 window. You then con-
trol the cutoff/center frequency with the Freq knob and the resonance with the Reso knob. See “Using the Enve-
lope 4 curve as a Spectral Filter curve” for information on how to draw your own filter curves.
Freq
D Set the cutoff/center frequency of the currently selected Spectral Filter type.
Reso
D Set the resonance amount of the currently selected Spectral Filter type.
Frequency Modulation
D Turn the Kbd knob to set the keyboard tracking amount.
At 0% the filter is static and doesn’t track the keyboard at all. At 100% the filter tracks the keyboard 1 semitone
per note. At values above 0% you can also see the filter curve move sideways in the Spectral Filter Display
depending on where on the keyboard you play.
D Click the Frequency Modulation Source box to bring up a menu of the available modulation sources.
The “Inverted” sub-menu contains inverted variations of all modulation sources.
D Set the modulation amount with the Frequency Modulation Amount knob.
D Turn the Velo knob to control the Frequency Modulation Amount from Keyboard Velocity.
q If you want other modulation sources or scaling options, use the Mod Bus, see “The Modulation Bus section”.
The Harmonics section
The Harmonics section offers extensive modulation possibilities of the partials of the signal. For most algorithms the
partials’ characteristics is displayed in the Spectral Filter display, see “Spectral Filter display”.
Harmonics On/Off
D Click the On/Off LED buttons to activate/deactivate the Harmonics section.
Harmonics selector
D Click the Harmonics name box to bring up a menu of the available harmonic algorithms.
The available Harmonics types are:
•Random Gain
This alters the gain for each of the partials in the signal in a random fashion. Turn the Pos knob to change the
randomization “pattern” and the Amount knob to change the partial gain levels in the “pattern”.
