release the lowest key and quickly touch and release the highest key. Keyboard glide is unconditional; it
will continue until it reaches the pitch of the last key played.
3. Simultaneously hold down two keys — one high and one low. Note that the pitch glides down to the lowest
key depressed. The Source uses a low note priority keyboard; the lowest key depressed determines the
pitch heard.
The depression of a key generates a Trigger, which initiates the action of the contour generators. As illustrated
on the front panel, triggers can be generated in one of two fashions: Single Triggering, where all keys must be
released before a key depression will initiate a new trigger; and Multiple Triggering, where a trigger is generated
whenever the keyboard voltage changes.
CONTOUR GENERATORS
As mentioned earlier, the voltage-controlled filter and the voltage-controlled amplifier are controlled by their
respective contour generators. The two contour generators function identically, and will output the same voltage
patterns if their controls are set identically.
That voltage pattern is a four-part contour that can be generically graphed as shown:
