>Off: The phase angle (see glossary) of each oscillator is reset
to a random value at the start of each note. This closely
emulates the “free-running” oscillators found in real ana-
logue synthesizers.
> 1 to 127: The phase angle of oscillator 1 is fixed at 0°, oscil-
lator 2 phase is shifted forward, oscillator 3 phase is shifted
backwards by the same amount. Because it ensures that the
“click”at the start of notes always sound the same, setting
the Initial Phase to a value other than Off is particularly use-
ful for percussive sounds.
Key Mode
Specifies how voices are assigned:
>Poly: Polyphonic.
>Mono 1: Monophonic, multi-trigger, full portamento (see
“Portamento” on page 122)
>Mono 2: Monophonic, multi-trigger, legato portamento
>Mono 3: Monophonic, single-trigger, full portamento
>Mono 4: Monophonic, single-trigger, legato portamento
> Hold: Polyphonic. Notes are held until they are all released
and a new note is played.
Osc Volume
Accessible from the panel via the OSC VOLUME knob.
> -64 to -63: Determines the total level of all oscillators and
input signals (but not Noise or Ring Modulator) immediately
before entering the filters. Note: The value 0 is unity gain i.e.
already maximum volume – positive values control Satura-
tion intensity only (see “Saturation” on page 140). Modula-
tion destination “Osc Volume“.
Portamento
> Off, 1 to 127: Determines how slowly the pitch of notes
glides from one to the next. The actual effect of portamento
depends on the KeyMode (see “Key Mode” on page 122).
Modulation destination “Portamento”.
Punch
> 0 to 127: Enhances the percussive effect of short Attack
times in the amplifier envelope. At higher values, Punch
becomes a noticeable “snap” at the start of each note. Mod-
ulation destination “Punch Intensity”.
