  • Page 2 General ---------------------------------- Thank you for buying the MFB SYNTH LITE II. It is an analogue synthesizer module that can be controlled by MIDI data. The SYNTH LITE II is monophonic and, therefore, can play one note at a time. The unit’s sound engine is equipped with 83 memory locations allowing you, the user, to access lots of different sounds, just by calling them up.
  • Page 3 ADSR ---------------------------------- The SYNTH LITE II has two envelope generators: ADSR1 (VCF) and ADSR2 (VCA). They each offer four parameters. ATTACK (time from zero level to maximum level when triggering a note), DECAY (time from maximum level to sustain level), SUSTAIN (level while holding a note) and RELEASE (time from sustain level to zero level after releasing a note).
  • Page 4 ---------------------------------- Activate pulse width modulation by setting OSC 2’s waveform to impulse. A modulation will no longer target this oscillator’s pitch but its symmetry for timbral changes. Glide ---------------------------------- Press GLIDE to activate the Portamento/Glide function, a step less pitch transition between two adjacent played notes.

Connect the keyboard /sequencer to the first module and chain the following modules in series. This is how it works: The last LITE II will play all incoming MIDI notes, the second last has to play every second note and send out the other one, the third plays every third note and sends the other two notes and so on.
  • Page 8 Presets ---------------------------------- The listed presets were programmed using the the following system parameters: Velocity Key Follow Release/Decay 1+2 On Mod-Wheel Changing any of the above system settings can affect the way the presets sound or are intended to sound. This is especially true for the Key Follow parameter setting. Classic Synthsounds Bass –...
