Filter Mix module. They are not pure sines but useful regardless.
-The “fizzy-sounding” clipping that the Pre Filter Mix can produce
is also possible in the Post Filter Mix, so take care to keep the
sum total of all active Filter Levels below 100 (for example,
Filter 1 BP: 29 and Filter 2: 65). Adjust to taste. It has been
found that closing-filter sounds such as dark brass can cause
this “fizz” even at a Filter 2 Level of 60, when it is the only
Filter active in the buss. There is gain available in such cases
at the Voice Mix Level control.
Envelopes
-The Envelopes have seven stages. You can “defeat” some of these stages if
less-complex shapes are desired, such as ADSR, ASR, etc.
-Creating ADSR, ASR, etc. envelope configurations.
Setting the Decay 1, Decay 2, and Release 1
pots to minimum will turn those stages off, and the surrounding
stages will 'close the gap', resulting in an ASR. Setting Decay 2
and Release 1 to minimum will turn them off, and their associated
Level control.
-Locking out undesired stages.
On the Envelope Time pages, Soft Pot 8 Enables a feature
called Lock, which causes all stages that are Off at that time to
remain Off regardless of their pot setting. All active pots will
remain active even if you set them to their minimum setting.
This of course allows you to use the controls as if it were a
typical analog hardware Envelope, which is especially comfortable
if you enjoy settings at or approaching zero without worrying if
you'll disable a stage as you perform.
-Envelope 1 and 2 are bipolar.
Each of the Level parameters can
be easily set to zero by selecting it and then simultaneously
pressing the Inc/Dec keys. Of course, if you modulate a volume
parameter with either Envelope 1 or 2, an Envelope value of
zero or any negative number will result in silence.
-Nine different slopes are available per Envelope stage. On each
Time page, Soft Pot 5 will always be used to select which shape
is desired. To avoid having to move a pot to make it active for
the selection process and potentially losing a critical value, simply
use Soft Pot 1, Time, to scroll to the desired stage. On the Level
page, pressing Level will also scroll the selection.
-Each Envelope can be set to multitrigger or legato modes
(Dynamics page, Soft Pot 1). Legato works in Kbd Mono Mode.
-Each Envelope has multiple modes of operation, including
Freerun and Mod-Trig, which allows you to fire the Env from
the Trigger input. See the Trig page and Soft Pot 7 to select
the different modes. You'll notice that on Soft Pot 8, there is
an associated parameter called Trig. You can turn the pot to
