a: OSC Mode
b: Note Interval
b: Note Fine
The OSC Mode parameter selects the oscillator operation
mode. When Note (Key Follow) is selected, the oscillator's
frequency is determined based on the note number,
allowing you to use it as an octaver. The Note Interval
parameter sets the pitch offset from the original note
number by semitone steps. The Note Fine parameter allows
you to fine-tune in steps of cents.
d: Envelope Pre LPF
This parameter sets the upper limit of the frequency range to
which very low harmonics are added. Adjust this parameter
if you do not want to add lower harmonics to the higher
range.

015: Talking Modulator

This effect adds an unusual character, like a human voice, to
the input signal. Modulating the tone via dynamic
modulation, you can create an interesting effect that sounds
as if the guitar or synthesizer is talking.

These parameters assign vowels to the top, center, and
bottom position of the controller.
E.g.: When "Voice Top"=A, "Voice Center"=I, and "Voice
Bottom"=U:
If Sweep Mode is set to D-mod and Ribbon is selected as the
modulation source, moving your finger from the right to left
of the ribbon controller will change the sound from "a" to
"i," then "u."
If Sweep Mode is set to LFO, the sound will change
cyclically from "a" to "i," "u," "i," then "a."

f: Formant Shift
This parameter adjusts the frequency level to which the

effect is applied. If you wish to apply the effect to a higher-
range sound, set this parameter to a higher value; to apply
p.451
the effect to a lower-range sound, set this to a lower value.

f: Resonance

This parameter sets the intensity of resonance for the voice
pattern. A larger value will add more character to the sound.
