The connection between the filter cut-off frequency and the keyboard. At the preset value "Key" the key-
board will control the cut-off frequency at a rate of one semitone for each key. Turning clockwise from
the center position will increase the tracking, turning counter clockwise, will decrease it. Off disconnects
the keyboard tracking completely. Click on the triangle above the control to reset the keyboard tracking
to Key.

Displays the resonance in 'units'. Range: 0 to 127 units.

This is a function that emphasizes the frequencies that is at, or close to, the cut-off frequency. If you set
the control to 127 the filter will start to self-oscillate and produce a sine wave. Range: 0 to 127 units.

Displays a schematic graph of the selected filter characteristics. The Y-axis represents level and the X-axis
the frequency. The horizontal line represents the 0 dB level.

The Vocal Filter module is designed to simulate the vocal tract. You can select between a number of preset
vowels and change and modulate them to generate really amazing effects. Waveforms with a lot of over-
tones, such as sawtooth or pulse waves, are best suited to be used with the Vocal Filter.

This function emphasizes the frequency peaks of the vowels. The more resonance, the more clearly the
vowels appear. Click on the green triangle above the rotary knob to reset to a medium value.

Sets the initial center frequency offsets of the vowels. The practical result of turning this knob would be
like pitch-shifting a sampled voice. Click on the green triangle above the rotary knob to reset to a medium
value.
