Audio Signal flow

Predator is a subtractive virtual synthesis synthesizer with 16 note polyphony including some extraordinary
new ideas and features. The synthesizer is designed so that it makes use of subtractive synthesis but also a
bit of FM synthesis is possible.
The block diagram below shows the audio signal flow within Predator and Predator FX.

Filter section, Amp section, Free modulation section, Arpeggiator section, Play modes section, Preset
section and Advance section. Below at the right corner is the parameter readout field.
The Arpeggiator section and Free modulation occupy the same space, to toggle between these two screens
