PAGE 7 - FILTER
Here you can make settings for the filters that will be used by
the oscillators. You can select either a 24 dB/octave low pass
filter with resonance, or a series connection of a 12 dB/octave
low pass filter and a 12 dB/octave high pass filter.
Selected
Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter-
natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.
Filter Type
This parameter selects the type of filter (Low Pass Resonant,
Low Pass & High Pass) for the selected oscillator. When the
Low Pass & High Pass filter type is selected, the filter B will be
activated.
Trim
Use this parameter to adjust the level at which the audio sig-
nal output from the selected oscillator is input to filter A.
Note: If this value is raised, the sound may distort if Resonance
is set to a high value or when you play a chord.
00…99 Trim level.
Frequency A (Cutoff Frequency A)
This parameter specifies the cutoff frequency of filter A.
00…99 Cutoff frequency value.
Resonance A
The resonance emphasizes the overtone components that lie
in the region of the cutoff frequency specified by “Frequency”,
producing a more distinctive sound. Increasing this value will
produce a stronger effect.
00…99 Resonance value.
Resonance modulation
AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)
Selects the source that will control the “Resonance level. See
AMS (Alternate Modulation Source) list” on page 14-19.
Intensity (AMS Intensity)
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the effect
that “AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)” will have on the
resonance level specified by “Resonance A”.
For example if Velocity has been selected, changes in key-
board velocity will affect the resonance.
With positive (+) values, the resonance will increase as you
play more strongly, and as you play more softly the resonance
will approach the level specified by the “Resonance” setting.
With negative (–) values, the resonance will decrease as you
play more strongly, and as you play more softly the resonance
will approach the level specified by the “Resonance” setting.
The resonance level is determined by adding the “Resonance
and “Intensity (AMS Intensity)” values.
-99…+99 Parameter value.
Filter B
Frequency B (Cutoff Frequency B)
This parameter specifies the cutoff frequency of filter B. This
parameter will be displayed when “Filter Type” is set to Low
Pass & High Pass.
00…99 Cutoff frequency value.
PAGE 8 - FILTER MODULATION
These settings let you apply modulation to the cutoff fre-
quency (“Frequency”) of the filter for the selected oscillator
to modify the tone.
When “Filter Type” is Low Pass Resonance, parameters for
filter B will not be editable (greyed out).
Selected
Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter-
natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.

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.

High Pass
This filter cuts the low-frequency range that
lies below the cutoff frequency. By cutting
the lower overtones, it lightens the tone.
