ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
KARPLUS-STRONG CONTROLS
Karplus-Strong mode gives you access to a monophonic, delay-based string synthesizer. To enter Karplus-Strong
mode, hold the ECHO ON button and turn the DELAY/TUNE knob clockwise until the TAP/TRIG button turns RED. For
normal delay operation, hold the ECHO ON button and turn DELAY/TUNE knob counterclockwise until the TAP/TRIG
button blinks GREEN.
FEEDBACK: Affects string decay and structure resonance.
ECHO ON: Mixes in the dry string signal with the wet output. If ECHO ON is not selected, only the reverberated string
will be heard at the wet output.
DELAY/TUNE: Sets string tuning over a continuous 4 octave range. When SIZE/PITCH CV is detected, sets fine tuning
of 12 semitones.
TAP/TRIG (quick press): Triggers or ‘plucks’ string.
TAP/TRIG (hold): Continuously excites or ‘bows’ the string.
FEEDBACK CV: Affects string decay and structure resonance. FEEDBACK knob position acts as an offset.
SIZE/PITCH CV: Controls the string pitch interval at 1V/octave over a 4 octave range. Input range is 0-4V.
TAP/TRIG CV: Triggers or ‘plucks’ the string.
IN GATE CV: Continuously excites or ‘bows’ the string in latching or momentary operation. See complete manual for
in-depth detail.
