Basic Guide

e. Adjust the pitch of oscillator 2 in semitone units

●Rotate the [SEMITONE] knob.

The LCD screen will show Page 06C: OSC 2 “Semitone.” The most common way to use this is to set oscillator 2 one or two octaves lower than the pitch of oscillator 1.

Semitone: -12

f. Adjust the pitch of oscillator 2

●Rotate the [TUNE] knob.

The LCD screen will show Page 06D: OSC 2 “Tune.” By slightly skewing the pitch to create a detuning effect, you can give the sound more depth.

●Rotate the FILTER [RESONANCE] knob.

The LCD screen will show Page 08C: FILTER “Reso- nance.”

Rotating the knob toward the right (increasing the value) will dramatically change the character of the sound.

The resonance effect will also be significantly affected by the filter type and cutoff settings.

Resonance: 045

d. Adjusting the depth of the effect from EG1

EG1 changes the filter cutoff over time. “EG 1 Int” adjusts the depth of this effect.

●Rotate the FILTER [EG 1 INT] knob.

The LCD screen will show Page 08D: FILTER “EG 1 Int.” Rotating the knob to the right of center (+ values) will cause the effect to be applied to the cutoff in the positive

(+) direction.

Rotating the knob to the left of center (– values) will cause the effect to be applied to the cutoff in the negative

(–) direction.
