Playing A Sound With A Midi Keyboard; Editing A Sound; Editing The Fx And Cv Tracks; The Fx Track - Elektron Analog Four Full Reference Manual

KITS AND SOUNDS
Sounds can be played back in portamento or legato modes. Settings controlling this are found in the SOUND
menu, covered on page 15.

PLAYING A SOUND WITH A MIDI KEYBOARD

The synth voices are also possible to play with an external MIDI keyboard connected to the Analog Four. Which
MIDI tracks the voices respond are set up in the MIDI CHANNELS menu, covered on page 37.

EDITING A SOUND

To edit a Sound, first select one of the synth tracks by pressing [TRACK] keys 1-4. The Sound of the active
synth track is the one that will be edited.
The overall volume level of the active track is adjusted with the LEVEL knob.
Sounds are edited by adjusting the parameters found on the synth track PARAMETER pages. Access these
pages by pressing the [PARAMETER] page keys. If a page contains a subpage, press the [PARAMETER] page
key again to access it. Use the DATA ENTRY knobs to change the parameters.
Six different PARAMETER pages exist. For a full description of the functions of the parameters, please see
"Appendix A: SYNTH TRACK PARAMETERS".
OSC1 controls oscillator 1. Contains one sub page for the noise generator.
OSC2 controls oscillator 2. The sub page hosts parameters relevant for both oscillators.
FILTERS controls the two filters and the overdrive. One 24 dB/octave 4-pole lowpass ladder
filter and one 2-pole multimode filter are at hand, connected in series with the overdrive
between them.
AMP contains parameters for the amplitude envelope. Effect sends are found here as well.
ENV offers two freely assignable envelopes. The first one also controls the filters. The second
envelope is located in a subpage.
LFO is where parameters for the two freely assignable LFOs are found. Contains one sub-
page.

EDITING THE FX AND CV TRACKS

Editing the FX and CV tracks is very similar to editing the Sounds of the synth tracks. The PARAMETER pages
contain parameters relevant for the two types of tracks. For full explanations of the parameters for the FX and
CV tracks, please see "Appendix B: FX TRACK PARAMETERS" and "Appendix C: CV TRACK PARAME-
TERS" respectively.
•
FX and CV track parameter settings are only saved as part of a kit.

THE FX TRACK

The FX track controls the Analog Four internal send effects. To edit the FX track, press the [TRACK FX] key. Six
PARAMETER pages exist for the FX track:
EXT IN contains parameters relating to the external inputs.
CHORUS controls the chorus effect.
DELAY controls the delay effect.
