AMPLIFIER EG (PRESET EDIT MENU 1.4)
Highlight AMPLIFIER EG >> and press the CURSOR button to enter the AMPLIFIER EG sub menu.
GATE SRC
This is used to select which gate sources trigger the amplifier envelope. With NOTES selected,
only key presses and arpeggiations will trigger the amplifier envelope. The KB GATE jack
on the left side of the Sub 37 will not affect the amplifier envelope. With EXT selected, only
trigger voltages received at the KB GATE jack will trigger the amplifier envelope. Neither
key presses nor arpeggiations will affect the amplifier envelope. With BOTH selected, the
keyboard, arpeggiations and the KB GATE will trigger the amplifier envelope.
EXP. ATTACK
This parameter determines if the amplifier envelope’s attack curve is linear (OFF) or
exponential (ON). Default is OFF. An exponential attack will have a steeper slope on its way
to the maximum value. Each slope has its own sonic advantages, which vary depending on
whether you’re using very fast or very slow attack times.
CLOCK DIV
This specifies the amplifier envelope’s repeating relationship to the internal or MIDI clock when
the envelope’s button is illuminated. The first value is 4, which means that the amplifier
envelope is triggered every 4 whole notes (384 MIDI clocks). The highest value is 1/64T, which
means that the amplifier envelope is re-triggered every 1/64th-note triplet (1 MIDI clock).
Please refer to the chart on page 52 for a list of available clock divisions.
KB TRNSPOSE (PRESET EDIT MENU 1.5)
This parameter allows you to transpose the Sub 37’s keyboard from -12 half steps to +12 half steps.
The default is OFF. To transpose the keyboard from the front panel, hold both the KB OCTAVE UP and
DOWN buttons at the same time, and play any single note in the lower two octaves of keys. Pressing
Middle C will set the transposition to +0 (default). Keys to the left of Middle C will transpose downward,
and keys above Middle C will transpose upwards. This is stored as part of the preset.
KB PRIORITY (PRESET EDIT MENU 2.1)
Because the Sub 37 is monophonic (unless in DUO MODE), it will play only one note at a time.
By default, when you press two keys at the same time, it plays the most recent key you pressed,
regardless of its position. This is called last-note priority. You can change that behavior, however, so
that it will play either the lowest or the highest note when you press more than one key. The choices
are LOW (low-note priority), HIGH (high-note priority), or LAST (last-note priority). When the DUO
MODE button is lit, oscillator two will follow the low key, high key, or no keys, as indicated by the LO
and HI LEDs in the oscillator section. There is a global override of per-preset keyboard note priority in
the GLOBAL MENU. If LOW, HIGH, or LAST is chosen there, all KB PRIORITY settings will be ignored.
BEND UP (PRESET EDIT MENU 2.2)
This specifies the maximum upward pitch bend amount of the PITCH wheel in half-step (100 cent)
intervals. The default is +2 (one whole step, 200 cents). The range is from +0 to +24 (two octaves).
BEND DOWN (PRESET EDIT MENU 2.3)
This specifies the maximum downward pitch bend amount of the PITCH wheel in half-step (100 cent)
intervals. The default is -2 (one whole step down, -200 cents). The range is from -0 to -24 (two octaves).
BEND DEST (PRESET EDIT MENU 2.4)
This selects which of the two oscillators will respond to the PITCH wheel. NONE will send no pitch
bend control to either oscillator. This allows you to use the PITCH wheel for other MOD destinations.
OSC 1 sends pitch bend control only to oscillator 1. OSC 2 sends pitch bend control only to oscillator 2.
And BOTH sends pitch bend control to both oscillators.
PRESET VOL (PRESET EDIT MENU 2.5)
This allows you to scale the total volume of each preset individually for level matching loud and soft
patches. The default is 100% with a value range of OFF (0%) to 100%.
