￿Move to the second section, click on the sequencer “on” button and set the 2 knobs lines corresponding to filter1 and VCO4. Finally, choose the type of sequence chaining with the fourth column.

Turn the “Smooth” knob

￿to complete the evolution of the sound in stereo, you can apply modulations to the cut-off frequencies of the 2 filters using a LFO. To make this effect more apparent, turn the level of the modulation input of filter1 to the left (negative value) and of filter2 to the right (positive value). By applying a slow rotation speed to the LFO, you will get the linking of the 2 sequences in stereo space, brought about by the opening of the 2 cut-off frequencies.
