KT Standard Sound Configuration
Each of the three voices within a KT Standard sound has:
• a digital oscillator playing one of the 211 waves from the KT wave memory
• a filter stage comprised of two multi-mode digital filters
• an output stage for amplitude control
• one low frequency oscillator (LFO)
• three complex envelope generators for controlling each of the three stages
• a versatile matrix modulation scheme with 15 routable modulation sources
The following diagram shows the configuration of one KT voice.
