8 ) The two KEYBOARD CONTROL switches (K) and (L) apply the control
signal produced by the keyboard to move the filter cutoff
frequency up and down.
for if there is no keyboard control of the filter, the higher
notes on the keyboard will sound duller than the lower ones, having
more of their overtones attenuated.

to the keyboard control signal.
* NOTE: When the EMPHASIS control is set to 10, the Filter breaks
into oscillation, and produces a pure sine wave tone.

The pitch of this additional oscillator may be controlled by
the five other controls on keyboard.
may be used alone or mixed with the other sound sources to
achieve a variety of complex effects.
To hear the sixth sound source alone, set up the instrument
as follows:
All Mixer switches (C,D,E,F,G)
Filter Modulation switch (J)
Keyboard Control switches (K & L)
Cutoff Frequency (17)
Emphasis (18)
Amount of Contour (19)
Now hold down or repeatedly strike a key, while experimenting
with the following means of controlling pitch:
