Panel descriptions

Here you can apply cyclic change to the sound,
such as modulating the pitch to create vibrato,
or modulating the volume to create tremolo.

MIX/MOD
(p. 32)

This mixes the
waveforms
generated by OSC 1
and OSC 2 to create
a richer sound.
Here you can also
boost or cut the low-
frequency range.

FILTER (p. 34)

This adjusts the brightness or thickness of the sound
produced in the MIX/MOD section. Here you can
also add a distinctive tonal character that is typical of
synthesizer sounds.

FILTER ENV (p. 37)

Here you can create time-varying changes in tone,
such as the way in which a note played on a piano
begins with a bright tone and gradually becomes
more mellow.

AMP (p. 38)

This determines the loudness of the sound that has
passed through the FILTER section. Here you can
also distort the sound to make it more powerful.

AMP ENV (p. 38)

Here you can create time-varying changes in volume,
such as the way in which a note played on a piano
gradually diminishes, or the way in which notes on a
bowed-string instrument begin gradually.

Use these buttons to select the patch you want to play.

Use these buttons to save a sound you’ve created.
