The pitch of its signal is determined by the input of CV and MIDI message from your keyboard or sequencer. Feet Selector Glissando This selector determines the ground Creates a glissando between notes played.
- Page 5 The Voltage Controlled Filter alters the sound by cutting off frequencies. Voltage Controlled Amplifier Freq Cut Off 12dB/oct Setting the VCF to the “H” end allows upper harmonics to pass, thereby creating a bright tonality. Moving the control towards the “L”...
