P3 The MODULATION WHEEL TO FILTER Parameter

This Parameter is very similar to the Velocity to Filter Parameter described above.

However, instead of Velocity dynamically modulating the Filter Cutoff Frequency,

Modulation Wheel data received via MIDI will either raise or lower the Filter Cutoff

Frequency depending on whether the Value is positive or negative respectively.

To set the amount that Modulation Wheel data will modulate the Filter, move the

cursor beneath the Parameter Value and then turn the Value encoder:

SND1:FILTER

MODWH>FILT: -2 0

In the above example, the Modulation Wheel to Filter Parameter has been given a

negative Value, which means that as the Modulation Wheel is moved up, Sound 1’s

Cutoff Frequency will be lowered and the Filter will close, making the Sound darker.

P4 The FILTER ENVELOPE TO FILTER Parameter

This Parameter is identical in concept to the Pitch Envelope to Pitch Parameter

(described above in the Pitch Function) except that in this case the envelope controls

the Filter Cutoff Frequency and not Pitch. The Filter Envelope to Filter Parameter

determines how much the Filter Envelope Function will affect the Filter Cutoff of the

current Sound.

To set the amount that you wish the Filter Envelope to modify the current Sound’s

Filter Cutoff Frequency, move the cursor beneath the Parameter Value and then turn

the Value encoder:

SND1:FILTER

F-ENV>FILTER: 9 9

Like the Pitch Envelope, note that negative Values will “invert” the Envelope,

allowing you to create less conventional envelope shapes. Remember that

“inverting” is not the same as “reversing” – the envelope will still play in a forward

direction (attack is still attack, release is still release, etc.) but the Filter Cutoff

Frequency will be modulated in the opposite direction from a normal envelope.
