Signal Path

Filter

The RMV's Filter section is located between the Modulation Matrix and Effects sections.
The Filter section contains three subsections: The Distortion subsection, the Filter
subsection and the Filter Envelope subsection. These are shown below.

Distortion

The RMV's Distortion section contains two independent distortion units: Dist
(Distortion) and Crush (BitCrusher). These are located at the left of the RMV's
Filter section. The two effects units operate as "insert" effects (as opposed to
"send" effects) which means that they can be set independently for each Pad.

The Crush (BitCrusher) effect is located before the Dist (Distortion) effect in the signal
chain. The Crush effect enables the bit depth of the signal to be decreased, thereby
decreasing the resolution and making the sound rougher and noisier. The Distortion effect
saturates the signal adding a digital "hardness" to the sound.

Each Distortion effect has a single control which is described below.

Dist(ortion):

The Distortion control enables the Drum Pad's output signal to be
distorted within a range of 0% (no distortion) to 100% (full distortion).

Crush:

The BitCrusher control enables the bit depth of the output signal to
be reduced from oo bits (the signal is not changed) to 1.00 bits.
Reducing the bit depth adds a harsh, noisy quality to the sound.

Filter

The RMV's multi-mode filter is located to right of the Distortion subsection. The filter is
switched on or off using the button above the Filter section.
