Menu: Program/Mod/Edit/Shape
Parameter: Rate [Only visible if “Sync” parameter is set to
“None”]
Value Range: 0.0200 Hz to 200 Hz
Sets the rate of your Sample & Hold clock.
Menu: Program/Mod/Edit/Shape
Parameter: Smoothing
Value Range: 0 to 100%
Smoothing is analogous to the “Portamento” parameter as it applies to
notes. This parameter smoothes out the transitions to be less abrupt.
Low values cause your changes to be abrupt, whereas higher values cause
transitions to be smoothed out.
Menu: Program/Mod/Edit/Shape
Parameter: New Table
Value Range: (none)
This button creates a “custom table” on which you can plot your own
transfer function for the current modulation route. A program can only
have one table at a time—once you create a table the “New Table”
button is replaced with a “Del Table” button that deletes the table.
Menu: Program/Mod/Edit/Shape
Parameter: Del Table (only available when a table has been created)
Value Range: (none)
This button deletes the table that has been created for the current
program.
