13.Make sure all other Special functions are turned off for this Slot. Do this by pressing the S
button repeatedly and check that the left digit in the display is set to 'oF' for all Functions except 'F'.
14.Press S again to return to "normal mode". If you play the keyboard now, you will not get any
HIFT
sound, because the Cutoff F
gered by the keyboard.
15.Set up your sequencer to play a simple repeating note pattern on MIDI Channel 2. The pitches of
the notes does not matter, only the rhythm.
16.Hold down a few keys on the keyboard and start the sequencer. The keys you press should now be
played with the rhythm from the sequencer.

This function can be used to trigger the Amplifier envelope via notes coming in via MIDI, instead of by
playing the keyboard. Just as with the previous function, this can be used to play back preprogrammed
rhythms in your MIDI sequencer while inputting the actual pitch(es) by playing the keyboard.
You must play keys on the keyboard, or via MIDI (on the Slot's MIDI Channel), to get any sound!
The parameters are the same as for the Filter Envelope function, see above.
If this function is activated and no MIDI notes are triggering the Amplifier envelope, the instrument
will be silent!

This function is used to control the Velocity/Morph function via the velocity numbers of incoming
MIDI notes.
This differs from the way Velocity/Morph is normally applied. Normally the velocity is applied each time
you press a key. With the External Velocity Control function, however, you can press and hold notes and
vary their timbre via the velocity of the incoming notes without releasing the keys (that is – without re-
triggering the envelopes).
You can use the U
The velocity control happens on its own MIDI Channel and note number(s), completely independent of
the MIDI Channel used for defining which keys should be played. It can be controlled from all notes on
one MIDI Channel or one specific note number on one MIDI Channel (see Function 3 above for how to
specify the MIDI note number and the MIDI Channel).
• When this function is activated, and a MIDI Note On message comes in, the parameters' values are
adjusted according to the note's Velocity value.
• When a MIDI Note Off message comes in, the Velocity/Morph function is reset to the minimum
value.
