Noise can be added and mixed with the oscillator outputs before they are mixed and routed into the
filter section. Two types of noise are available with a level control.

highest audible frequencies. Pink noise is filtered slightly with a low pass filter and
does not sound as “bright.”
Noise is turned off when no LEDs are lit.
LEVEL

turn on/off the release tail of the note.

and then play with the panel controls using both hands.

turned off, relea
se section of the note’s envelope does not function and the sound is
turned off immediately when a note is released regardless of the Release knob setting
in the Amplifier Envelope section.
