Edit 1:

Filterbank LFO 2 waveshape. Value 0-255. 0: triangle, 64: saw, 128: square, 255: pulse.

Edit 2:

Filterbank LFO 2 waveshape modulation. A negative value inverts the modulator.

Encoder:

Filterbank LFO 2 waveshape modulation source. Value: lfo1, lfo2, random, env(elope),

osc(illator), ctr1, ctr2, ctr3.

Encoder:

Selects the filter random generator trigger source. Choices are: LFO1, LFO2, MIDI

(note-on’s – Key range are set on the next page).
