Filter Envelope

The Filter Envelope affects the Filter 1 Frequency parameter. By setting up a

filter envelope you control the how the filter frequency should change over

time with the four Filter Envelope parameters, Attack, Decay, Sustain and

Release.

Filter Envelope Amount

This parameter determines to what degree the filter will be affected by the

Filter Envelope. Raising this knob’s value creates more drastic results. The

Envelope Amount parameter and the set Filter Frequency are related. If the

Filter Freq slider is set to around the middle, this means that the moment you

press a key the filter is already halfway open. The set Filter Envelope will

then open the filter further from this point. The Filter Envelope Amount set-

ting affects how much further the filter will open.

Filter Envelope Invert

If this button is activated, the envelope will be inverted. For example, nor-

mally the Decay parameter lowers the filter frequency, but after activating In-

vert it will instead raise it, by the same amount.

Mod Envelope

The Mod Envelope allows you to select one of a number of parameters, or

Destinations, to control with the envelope. By setting up a modulation enve-

lope you control the how the selected Destination parameter should change

change over time with the four Mod Envelope parameters, Attack, Decay,

Sustain and Release.

The available Mod Envelope Destinations are as follows:

Destination

Description

Osc 1 Selecting this makes the Mod Envelope control the pitch

(frequency) of Osc 1.

Osc 2 Same as above, but for Osc 2.

Osc Mix Selecting this makes the Mod Envelope control the oscillator

Mix parameter. Both oscillators must be activated for this to

have any effect.

FM Selecting this makes the Mod Envelope control the FM

Amount parameter. Both oscillators must be activated for

this to have any effect.

Phase Selecting this makes the Mod Envelope control the Phase

Offset parameter for both Osc 1 and 2. Note that Phase Off-

set Modulation (Subtraction or Multiplication) must be acti-

vated for this to have any effect (see page 103).

Freq 2 Selecting this makes the Mod Envelope control the Fre-

quency parameter for Filter 2.
