An interesting feature in Mode 13 is that because the filter is pseudo-VCF and not a real, the harmonics created by
the PM are not filtered out based on their own frequency, but instead based on the frequency of the fundamental that
was modulated. As an example, if you have a harmonic at a frequency of 550Hz, then its amplitude is determined
by Slider 11 (provided no modulation is controlling VCF at
modulation 2
or
adjust 2
is at its reset position). When
PM strength is increased by
modulation 1
&
adjust 1
, it creates harmonics at multiples of the 550Hz frequency, but
still all these harmonics are also controlled by Slider 11. This way you can get very dramatic spectral effects just by
one modulating input at
modulation 2
.
As a summary, here is a list of the patch cable connections and adjustments:
1. Connect envelope generator outputs to all those of the
envelope inputs
that you have activated for the
desired harmonic sliders 1 – 8, and for the filter amplitude sliders 9 – 16. Remember that on power up,
all are connected to input 1.
2. Connect envelope generator output to
modulation 2
to do the center frequency modulation of the
pseudofilters; use
adjust 2
to control its sensitivity.
3. If you want to use the noise features (Mode 4), or PM (Mode 13), connect also envelope generator
output to
modulation 1
and use
adjust 1
to set the modulation level.
4. Connect the note determining control voltage to the
CV note
input and the gate trigger signal to the
gate
input, and optionally connect the
CV pitch
and
CV velocity
inputs to the corresponding MIDI
input module outputs.
–
Use sliders 1 -8 to set the harmonic spectra.
–
Use sliders 9– 16 to set the pseudofilter spectral response.
–
If you want to use the 4 highest bands, connect a signal source also to envelope input 3.
