With the above setup, the filter sweeps up, then Decays back down to
the Decay 2 Level until you release the key. Then it sweeps down at the
Release rates. Play with the envelope parameters for awhile to get a feel
for their function. (If you're having trouble understanding the Envelope
Generators, please refer to the Programming Basics section in this
manual.)

FILTER
Aah-Ay-Eeh
These filters are extremely powerful and have been carefully crafted to offer
maximum flexibility and musical control. You may want to change the
Envelope (PatchCord) Amount, Q and/or the Filter Frequency to get the
right sound for each filter and instrument. These three controls, coupled
with the Filter Envelope, are perhaps the most important controls on any
synthesizer. Take the time to learn how they interact with each other and
you will be able to create sounds beyond imagination.
