Panel Descriptions
2 LFO
Here you can create cyclic change (modulation) in the sound by applying vibrato (pitch modulation) or tremolo (volume modulation).
Controller Value Explanation
[VARIATION] knob
(only for MODEL:
SYSTEM-8)
Selects the variation of the LFO section.
Variation 1
Variation 1 (Single LFO)
A standard LFO.
Variation 2
Variation 2 (Dual LFO)
This LFO is created by using a separate second LFO to apply frequency modulation
to the same LFO waveform as Variation 1. The second LFO is a sine wave ve octaves
lower.
Variation 3
Variation 3 (Resonanced Pulse LFO)
This is a pulse waveform with resonance.
The waveform knob selects the frequency of the resonance.

Variation 1 Variation 2 Variation 3
R
Sine wave (SIN) Sine wave (SIN x 2) TYPE 1
S
Triangle wave (TRI) Triangle wave (TRI x 2) TYPE 2
T
Sawtooth wave (SAW) Sawtooth wave (SAW x 2) TYPE 3
U
Square wave (SQR) Square wave (SQR x 2) TYPE 4
W
Sample and Hold (S&H) Sample and Hold (S&H x 2) TYPE 5
RND Random wave (RND) Random wave (RND x 2) TYPE 6
[PITCH] knob -128–0–+127 Allows the LFO to modulate the pitch of the partial, producing a vibrato eect.
[FADE TIME] knob 0–255
Species the time from when the tone sounds until the LFO reaches its maximum
amplitude.
[FILTER] knob -128–0–+127 Allows the LFO to modulate the FILTER CUTOFF (cuto frequency),
[KEY TRIG] button ON (lit), OFF (unlit)
Species whether the LFO waveform is synchronized to start the moment you press a
key (on) or is not synchronized (o).
[TRIG ENV] button ON (lit), OFF (unlit) Causes the envelope to start repeatedly at the LFO cycle (on).
[RATE] knob 0–255
Determines the speed of the LFO modulation.
The indicator blinks at the speed (rate) of the LFO modulation.
This knob is a GRF (GRIFFER) knob which allows high-precision adjustments.
[AMP] knob -128–0–+127 Allows the LFO to modulate the AMP LEVEL (volume), producing a tremolo eect.
3 OSC 1, OSC 2
Here you can select the waveform that determines the character of the sound, and specify its pitch. The SYSTEM-8 has three oscillators (OSC 1,
OSC 2, and
4
OSC 3/SUB OSC).
Controller Value Explanation
[VARIATION] knob
(only for MODEL:
SYSTEM-8)
Select the variation of the OSC 1 and OSC 2 sections.
Variation 1 This is the basic oscillator waveform.
Variation 2 This is a distinctive oscillator waveform.

Octave (feet) knob 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2 Species the octave of the oscillator.
[COLOR] knob 0–255
Adjusts the tone.
The result depends on the waveform.
