63
HP4 (127): A -24 dB/oct HPF (high pass filter). The -24 dB/oct HPF is a steeper filter than the -12 dB/
oct HPF.
2. Cutoff [0...127] (CC#74)
Sets the cutoff frequency. Increase this value to raise the cutoff frequency.
Tip:
The Cutoff value varies the sound by time-variant change produced by the filter EG, by the dynam-
ics of your keyboard playing (velocity) and by the note you play (keyboard tracking).
Note:
Some cutoff settings may make the volume significantly quieter.
3. Resonance [0...127] (CC#71)
Sets the resonance of the filter. This emphasizes the overtones near the cutoff frequency specified by
the Cutoff parameter, adding a distinctive character to the sound. Increasing this value emphasizes
the effect.
Tip:
Since the overtones that are emphasized by the resonance change when you move the Cutoff
knob, it’s best to adjust both the Cutoff and Resonance knobs.
4. Drive [0...127] (CC#83)
Sets the drive circuit distortion effect.
5. Keytrack [-200.0...0.0...200.0%] (CC#28)
This specifies how keyboard tracking (the note you play on the keyboard) affects the cutoff fre-
quency.
For example, if the sound you hear when playing the C4 key has the desired tone but higher notes
don’t have enough resonance or are too mellow-sounding, you can adjust the keyboard tracking to
compensate so that the cutoff frequency rises as you go up the keyboard.
With a positive (+) setting, the cutoff frequency rises as you go up the keyboard from C4, and falls as
you go down the keyboard. With a negative (-) setting, the cutoff frequency falls as you go up the key-
board from C4, and rises as you go down the keyboard. With a setting of +100.0 %, the change in cut-
off frequency is proportionate to the change in pitch. With a setting of 0, keyboard tracking does not
affect the cutoff frequency.
