• ENV-1 - Bipolar use of the ENV 1 envelope. In this mode the TONE MOD
fader is used to adjust the amount of modulation from 0 to ± 49%.
• ENV-2 - Bipolar use of the ENV 2 envelope. In this mode the TONE MOD
fader is used to adjust the amount of modulation from 0 to ± 49%.
• ENV-3 - Bipolar use of the ENV 3 envelope. In this mode the TONE MOD
fader is used to adjust the amount of modulation from 0 to ± 49%.
Note: When an ENVELOPE is used as a TONE MOD source, the arrows
indicate the range of modulation as shown below:

8.4 POLY
The POLY section is where you can control all settings related to the POLYPHONY,
PITCH, and POLY CHAIN operation of the DeepMind 12. The available -options
allow you to be highly creative in your use of the polyphonic, unison, and
monophonic capabilities of the voice structure.
POLY EDIT menu page 1 allows access to the VOICE parameters. Having 12 voices
gives you the ability to play 12 simultaneous notes, allowing the creation of large
chords, or being able to play complex sequences without needing to worry about
a note being cut o because there are not enough voices.
When playing voices in unison, you also have the ability to de-tune the voices.
POLY EDIT menu page 2 allows access to all settings related to PITCH
management, including transposition, portamento, pitch bend, and tuning.
POLY EDIT menu page 3 allows access to all settings related to setting up a POLY
CHAIN, where multiple DeepMind units can be used to increase the number of
voices. There are also settings that allow the setting up of a keyboard split with 2
or more DeepMind units.
8.4.1 UNISON DETUNE FADER
• The UNISON DETUNE fader controls how much detuning is applied across
voices when using any of the UNISON modes. The UNISON DETUNE can be
used to create thicker and richer sounds. This is a powerful aspect of the
DeepMind 12 architecture. Having 12 independent analog voices can make
some extremely luxurious and sonically gigantic sounds.
When UNISON DETUNE is applied, up to ± 50 cents of tuning is spread over
the number of voices used in UNISON.
The UNISON DETUNE range is from ±0.0 cents to 50.0 cents, and the default
setting is 0.0 cents (O).
Note: When using UNISON DETUNE in combination with the OSC KEYDOWN
RESET setting (in the OSC1 EDIT menu), you will hear the eects of phase
drift much more clearly, as the OSCs will all start from the same point on
their waveforms.
The fader position, current value, and stored value for the UNISON DETUNE
fader are shown on the PROG screen when the fader has been moved. There
is also a visualization of the detuning amount as shown below:
