letters by dragging them on the screen surface of the Vocal filter.
Manually moving the red ball cursor
 An LFO is also available to make an automation of the cursor movements.
 You can set the radius amplitude of the LFO by clicking on the red ball cursor and
moving it out of its central initial place. This action will set the width of the circle
of the ball movements.
 It’s also possible to re-arrange the order of the five vowels on the screen space.
To do this, simply click on one of the 5 letters and drag it on the place you wish
on the screen. Those changes will introduce some interesting variations when you
will modulate your five filters manually or with the LFO.
