X/Y Control
The X/Y control allows you to adjust two parameters simultaneously. This is especially
useful with the morphing filters where the X/Y control adjusts the blend between the
filter shapes. For the other filter modes, the X/Y control adjusts cutoff and resonance.
Depending on the selected filter type, the X/Y control adjusts different parameters:
Resonance
This parameter emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff. For an electronic
sound, increase the resonance. At higher resonance settings, the filter self-oscillates,
which results in a ringing tone.
Distortion
This parameter adds distortion to the signal. The effect depends largely on the
selected Filter Type. At higher settings, it creates a very intense distortion effect.
Ö This parameter is only available for the Tube Drive, Hard Clip, Bit Red, Rate Red and
Rate Red KF filter types.
CF Offset
For the dual filters, this parameter allows you to offset the cutoff frequency of the
second filter (filter shape B).
Res Offset
For the dual filters, this parameter allows you to offset the resonance of the second
filter (filter shape B).
Velocity
This parameter adjusts the cutoff modulation from velocity. Set this parameter to
positive values to increase the cutoff with higher velocities. Use negative values to
decrease the cutoff with higher velocities.
Env Amnt (Envelope Amount)
Use this parameter to adjust the Cutoff modulation from the filter envelope. Setting
negative values inverts the direction of the modulation from the filter envelope.
Key Follow
Here you can adjust the cutoff modulation using the note number. The range is from
-200
% to +200 %. Set this parameter to positive values to raise the Cutoff with notes
above the Center Key. Use negative values to lower the Cutoff with notes below the
Center Key. At +100
% the Cutoff follows exactly the played pitch.
Center Key
This parameter determines the MIDI note that is used as the central position for the
Key Follow function.
Selected filter Description
Single, Dual Serial
& Dual Parallel
The X/Y control adjusts the cutoff frequency on the horizontal and
resonance on the vertical axis.
Morph 2 and 4 The X/Y control adjusts the morphing between the filter shapes on
the vertical (Morph Y) axis. The horizontal axis adjusts the cutoff
frequency.
Morph XY The X/Y control adjusts the morphing between the filter shapes AD
and BC on the horizontal (Morph X) and AB and DC on the vertical
axis (Morph Y).
