Breath Control
Breath control
With these controls, you can set how the V-Station will respond to breath control.

PITCH
It may be desirable to drastically change the pitch of all the oscillators using
breath control. This setting is used to shift the absolute pitch of the all the
oscillators up or down in response to breath control. Values 1 to 63 will result in
a higher pitch from 1 to 63 semitones when you blow harder on the controller.
Values -1 to -64 will result in a lower pitch when blow harder on the controller.
PITCH MOD
Allows you to use breath control to control the amount of pitch modulation
from LFO1, introducing a vibrato effect. As you blow harder, LFO 1 modulation
(i.e. vibrato) will be applied. For best results, ensure that LFO 1 is using a
Triangle waveform and its SPEED is set to a value of around 75. This will give a
smooth, traditional vibrato effect.
FILTER
FREQ
Sets the amount that breath control will control the filter’s cutoff frequency.
With values of 0 to +63, blowing harder will cause the cutoff frequency to rise
(i.e. it will ‘open’ the filter). With values of 0 to -64, blowing harder will cause the
filter to close.
FREQ MOD
Allows you to use breath control to control the amount of filter cutoff frequency
modulation from LFO2. In this way, you can use breath control to introduce
filter sweeps.
A M P
AMP GAIN
By routing breath control to the amplifier, the overall volume of the sound may
be controlled. Positive values of 1 to 63 increase the output volume of the
Amp Envelope as you blow harder. Negative values from -1 to -64 decrease
the output volume of the Amp Envelope as you blow harder. At a setting of 0,
breath control will have no effect.
