Analog 2 Osc
Noise
0-100. This controls the output level of the noise generator. The button to the right
of the knob turns the output on and off completely.
Glide
Glide
0-100. This sets the glide amount (also known as portamento) for the oscillator,
which makes the pitch slide smoothly between notes. At 0, Glide is completely off.
At 100, notes will take a long time to glide to the new pitch.
Note that the effects of glide will also vary depending on the Patch's voice
allocation setting, in the Program Edit window. Poly Retrig, Poly Reuse, Mono
Legato, and Unison modes are generally the most suitable for use with Glide, but
you may find that you like other settings as well.
Noise Generator
Color
0-100. This is the cutoff frequency of a lowpass filter dedicated the noise generator.
Lower values will make the noise output darker, as well as more "speckly" and
uneven.
Filter
Cutoff
0-100. This controls the cutoff frequency of the filter. The meaning of the cutoff
frequency will change depending on the filter mode.
When the filter is set to Lowpass mode, frequencies above the cutoff are attenuated,
and frequencies below the cutoff are passed through unchanged.
When the filter is set to Highpass mode, frequencies below the cutoff will be
attenuated, and frequencies above the cutoff will pass through unchanged.
When the filter is set to Bandpass mode, frequencies both above and below the
cutoff will be attenuated, and only frequencies right at the cutoff will pass through
unchanged.
Note that the Envelope and Key Track parameters also affect the cutoff frequency.
This control has extra smoothing on the DSP, to ensure zipper-free modulation. If
instantaneous modulation is desired (such as modulation via velocity), modulate
the Envelope control instead.
Resonance
0-100. Resonance emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff frequency. At 0,
there is no emphasis, and frequencies beyond the cutoff will simply diminish
smoothly. At very high settings, the resonance can be heard as a separate, whistling
