The "Growl" parameter produces a periodic pressure modulation which produces
the "growl" effect often heard in wind instruments. An extensive range of parameters
allow remarkably realistic effects. The "Controller" parameter specifies the controller
to be used for growl control. When set to "off" no growl variation can be produced, but
an absolute growl value can be set via the "Value" parameter, below.
Depth
≤
-127 ... 127.
Sets the amount of variation produced by the controller assigned to growl. The
higher the value the greater the variation. Positive values cause an increase in growl
