Start Level Swing
This parameter specifies the direction of change in
“Start Level” caused by AMS1/2”. If “Intensity” is a
positiv

Pitch EG ‘Time’ modulation

This parameter selects the source that will control the
“Time” parameters of the pitch EG (see “A M S (Alter

PAGE 7 - FILTER
Here you can makesettings for the filtersthat will be
used by the oscillators. You can select either a 24 dB/
octave low pass filter with resonance, or a series con
nection of a12 dB/oct
ave low pass filter and a 12 dB

This is a filter that cuts the
high-frequency region above the cutoff
frequency.
This is the most common type of filter,
and is used to cut part of the overtone
components, making an originally bright
timbre sound more mellow (darker).
When the “Filter Type” is Low Pass
Resonance, the cutoff will have a
steeper slope.
