KNOB VARIATION
With the middle controller "VARIATION" the intensity of random changes in volume and envelope
times can be regulated. This varies a running sequence, and more lively playback patterns or vari-
ations of the sequence result. When the control is set to ZERO, the pattern is played back unchan-
ged.
The following parameters are affected: volume (volume of the step), decay times and release times.
KNOB FILL
The third control “FILL” regulates all VCAs evenly until the maximum volume of all channels is rea-
ched (“filling the channels”). This happens in addition to the playing sequence. The sequence con-
tinues to be heard until the maximum is reached. The effect can be compared to the dry-wet beha-
vior of the MIX controller, where the original signal and the effect signal are mixed. Here, however,
the sequence and the uniform low or high level of all filter bands are mixed.
The graphic below illustrates the effect:
