1 - FREQUENCY, Q, ENVELOPE AMOUNT

This function determines the filters initial cutoff frequency and Q (sharpness), as well as
the extent to which the associated ADSR envelope affects the filter cutoff frequency.
Application: Change the timbral quality of a sound.
1. With the module active, Current Voice assigned (see GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 2),
and the ENTER LED either lit steadily or off, key in 1. The display says:
Freq
XXX
...where X is a numeral.
Freq, controlled by Slider A, ranges from 000 to 120. Higher values correspond to higher
filter cutoff frequencies. Its maximum sweep range is most obvious with Env set to +00.
Q, controlled by Slider B, ranges from 00 to 99. Higher values correspond to increased
resonance, which gives a sharper, more whistling sound.
Env, controlled by Slider C, ranges from -50 (maximum inverted envelope) to +00 (no
envelope) to +50 (maximum positive envelope). It is usually necessary to raise the filter
cutoff value when using inverted envelopes.
