levels to avoid distortion in the Limiters although such
distortion can be useful at times.
r
The Filter Resonance can be controlled using fixed
routings of MIDI CC #87 for Filter 1 and MIDI CC
#88 for Filter 2.
EG2 to Frequency
This control sets the amount that Envelope Generator 2
(EG2) modulates the current filter's cutoff frequency. For
positive settings, the filter cutoff frequency is increased by
the modulation of the envelope, for negative settings, the
cutoff frequency is decreased. Use this parameter to chan-
ge the filter frequency over time. Sounds with a hard at-
tack usually have a positive envelope amount that makes
the start phase bright and then closes the filter to get a
darker sustain phase. String sounds, on the other hand,
usually use a negative envelope amount that gives a slow
and dark attack before the cutoff rises in the sustain phase.
g
Kyra’s filters come to life when they are modulated.
A wide range of hardwired modulations are provi-
ded and you can always add more possibilities u-
sing the Mod Matrix.
r
EG2 is designed for filter modulation and has hard-
wired routes for that purpose. You can of course use
the EG for other purposes via the Mod Matrix. The
description of the Filter EG controls can be found in
the EG section.
Filters 1 & 2 Pages
The pages and descriptions below describe Filter 1.
r
The parameters, controls and pages for Filter 1 and
Filter 2 are identical so only Filter 1 is described he-
re.
