ARTURIA – CS-80 V – USER MANUAL
42
The action of this LFO is determined through the VCO, VCF, and VCA faders which
sets the modulation rate of the oscillator frequency, filter frequency and output level
for both lines of synthesis.
Setting the modulation through aftertouch
The VCO and VCF modulation rate can also be modified through aftertouch with
the faders under the TOUCH RESPONSE label. The SPEED control also modulates the
speed of the sub-oscillator through aftertouch.
3.5.4
The keyboard modulations
The INITIAL fader performs a slight frequency modulation on the oscillators. This
modulation is a linear ramp that depends at the same time on the fader setting and
the velocity.
Initial tuning
Fader at the top, there is no modulation; at the bottom, the modulation is set to the
maximum.
About the orientation of these faders, the original CS-80 operates in that way,
which can be confusing. But we chose to reflect the original character of the
machine.
The faders under the KEYB. CONTROL label set the key follow rate. The faders under
the BRILLIANCE label set the key follow of the filters, and those under the LEVEL label
set key follows for the amplifier:
The LOW faders set the key follow slope for the lower part of the keyboard
(below C3);
The HIGH faders set the slope for the higher part;
The slopes can be positive or negative.
