TONE
JUPITER-8
Parameter Value Explanation CC#
LFO RATE 0–1023 Species the rate of the LFO cycle. 29
LFO DELAY TIME 0–1023
Adjusts the time from when the key is pressed
until the LFO starts to apply modulation.
27
LFO WAVEFORM
SINE,
SAW-DW,
SQR,
S&H
Selects the waveform of the LFO.
LFO MOD 0–100
Adjusts the depth at which the LFO modulates
the OSC.
26
PIT ENV DEPTH -100–+100
Adjusts the depth at which the LFO modulates
the ENV1.
22
DEST SELECT
OSC1,
BOTH,
OSC2
Selects the OSC that is modulated by LFO
MOD.
PULSE WIDTH
MOD
0–127
PW MODE = MANUAL
Adjusts the pulse
width.
50
PW MODE = LFO/ENV
Adjusts the
modulation depth.
PW MODE
Species the pulse width mode.
LFO The pulse width is changed by the LFO.
MANUAL
The pulse width is changed by PULSE WIDTH
MOD.
ENV The pulse width is changed by the ENV1.
CROSS MOD 0–10800
Uses the OSC2 waveform to change the
frequency of OSC1. Higher values cause the
sound of OSC1 to be more complex, allowing
you to create metallic sounds or sound eects.
OSC1 RANGE 16’, 8’, 4’, 2’ Species the octave of OSC1. 47
OSC1 WAVEFORM
TRI,
SAW,
PW,
SQR
Selects the waveform that is the basis of the
OSC1 sound.
SYNC SWITCH OFF, ON
This is oscillator sync. It produces a complex
waveform by forcibly resetting OSC1 to the
beginning of its cycle in synchronization with
the cycle of OSC2.
OSC2 MODE
NORMAL,
LOW FREQ
Selects whether OSC2 operates as NORMAL (in
the audible frequency range) or as LFO (in the
low frequency range).
111
LOW FREQ 0–127
Species the octave when OSC2 MODE is set
to LOW FREQ.
OSC2 RANGE -12–+24 Species the octave of OSC2. 62
OSC2 FINE TUNE -50–+50
Species a ne adjustment to the pitch of
OSC2.
56
OSC2 WAVEFORM
SINE,
SAW,
PW,
NOISE
Selects the waveform that is the basis of the
OSC2 sound.
OSC1 LEVEL 0–255 Adjusts the volume balance of OSC1. 16
OSC2 LEVEL 0–255 Adjusts the volume balance of OSC2. 17
HPF 0–1023
Adjusts the cuto frequency of the high-pass
lter.
79
VINTAGE FLT TYPE JP, M, S
Selects one of three response curves, each
modeling the LPF of an analog synthesizer of
the past.
108
CUTOFF 0–1023
Species the cuto frequency of the low-pass
lter. The frequency region above the cuto
frequency is cut, producing a more mellow
tonal character.
3
RESONANCE 0–1023
Boosts the region of the lter’s cuto
frequency. Higher values produce a stronger
result, giving the sound a distinctively
synthesizer-like character.
9
FILTER SLOPE -12dB, -24dB Selects the type of slope for the low-pass lter.
FLT ENV DEPTH -1023–+1023
Adjusts the amount by which the cuto
frequency is controlled by the envelope.
81
FLT ENV MODE ENV1, ENV2
Selects the envelope that is used to control
the cuto frequency.
