In the second row the buttons will switch between

mode.
Below the
Wave
button on the left side there is an
On
/
Off
button to enable and disable the particular kernel. This is
useful for temporarily disabling a modulation by disabling
the modulating kernel.
On the right you will find the
Out
button which determines
if the kernel’s output is sent and mixed into the oscillator’s
output. If output is activated, there is a
Solo
button shown,
which is handy for layered algorithms with multiple
kernels sending to the output. With
Solo
you can quickly
experience each kernels sonic contribution to the overall
sound.

Keep in kind that the On/Off state is saved with the
sound patch and the template, but not the Solo state.
The Wave Page
Tap on the
Wave
button to switch to the corresponding
Kernel display page. This page is identical for all of the six
kernels. The following parameters are available:
K1....6 Type:
Each kernel can generate Sine waves for
classic FM, the whole range of Quantum factory wavetab-
les, classic waveforms like Saw up/down, Triangle, Square,
as resonant waveforms as well as White & Pink noise. The
screen shows the wave and its spectrum. If Wavetable is
selected, further parameters are available:
K1...6 Wavetable & K1...6 WTB Pos:
These do what you
would expect, switching between factory wavetable and
setting the wavetable position. Both can of course be mo-
dulated, but there are no particular facilities like Travel
and such. For these, and to make use of user wavetables,
speech, spectrum etc. you have to use the main Wavetable
mode. So, the kernel wavetable mode is comparatively
fairly simple, but well, you now have up to 6 wavetable
oscillators within a single oscillator, each potentially using
a different wavetable in a different position, and you can
use an outside LFO to modulate them.
Tap on
K1...6 Type
,
K1...6 Wavetable & K1...6 WTB Pos
to open a pop-up menu for further settings:
•
Set Default
: sets the parameter to its default value.
•
Set Last Loaded
: resets the parameter to the last
loaded value from the current sound patch.
•
MIDI Learn CC
: activates MIDI Learn, which maps an
incoming MIDI control change to this parameter.
K1...6 Level
determines the level of the corresponding
kernel. For a kernel sending to the oscillator out, this is
simply its volume. For kernels modulating other kernels,
