OSC. 3/FILTER EG SWITCH
This switch to the bottom left side of the CONTROLLERS
panel is used to choose the modulation source that
will be assigned to the counterclockwise position of the
MODULATION MIX knob. Originally, this modulation source
was fixed to OSC. 3, but this updated reissue allows FILTER
EG to be selected as well.
In the FILTER EG position, the shape defined by the ATTACK
TIME, DECAY TIME, and SUSTAIN LEVEL knobs of the Filter
Contour are used as a modulation source. Filter EG is an ideal
modulation source for creating analog brass and percussion
sounds.
NOISE/LFO SWITCH
This switch to the bottom right side of the CONTROLLERS
panel is used to choose the modulation source that will be
assigned to the clockwise position of the MODULATION MIX
knob. Originally, this modulation source was fixed to NOISE,
but this updated reissue allows LFO to be selected as well.
The NOISE switch located in the mixer selection determines
what type of noise is used for modulation. When WHITE
NOISE is selected, Pink Noise is actually the modulation
source. When PINK NOISE is selected, Red Noise is actually
the modulation source. In the LFO position, the additional
LFO located on the Left-Hand Keyboard panel is used as a
modulation source. This is ideal for pitch vibrato and trills
when all three oscillators are in use.
TIP: The Noise position can also be used to introduce an external
modulation source via the MOD. SRC. (Modulation Source) jack on
the Top Patch Panel. Inserting a standard 1/4" TS cable into this jack
breaks the normalled connection, and any external control voltage
can be used as a modulation source. Additionally, if a TRS to TS
insert cable is used, the Modulation Noise signal output is made
available on the ring/send portion of the cable.
MODULATION MIX
This knob sets the balance between the modulation sources
selected using the OSC. 3/FILTER EG and NOISE/LFO
switches. With the MODULATION MIX knob rotated fully
counterclockwise, only the modulation source selected
by the OSC. 3/FILTER EG switch is applied. With the
MODULATION MIX knob rotated fully clockwise, only the
modulation source selected by the NOISE/LFO switch is
applied. In the center position, both selected modulation
sources are applied equally.
