fig.DESTINATION1

This specifies the parameter that will be modulated by the LFO.

Press the button so that the indicator for the desired destination is lit.

Each press of the button takes you to next choice among the available LFO destinations: PITCH 1 -> PW 1 ->

FILTER -> AUDIO FILTER -> PITCH 1 -> ... .

DEPTH knob

This specifies the depth of modulation that will be applied to the parameter you selected for DESTINATION 1.

• Turning the knob toward the right will deepen the modulation.

• At the center position (0) of the knob there will be no modulation.

• Turning the knob toward the left will vertically invert the direction of the modulation produced by the LFO

waveform.

* LFO 1 and LFO 2 each have a DESTINATION 1 and a DESTINATION 2.

DESTINATION 1

Lit indicator What is being modulated

PITCH 1

The OSC 1 PITCH (Pitch, p. 29) will be modulated (producing vibrato).

PW 1

The OSC 1 PW/FEEDBACK knob setting will be modulated.

If you select as the OSC 1 waveform, this will produce an effect known as PWM (Pulse Width Modulation).

FILTER

The FILTER CUTOFF (cutoff frequency, p. 35) will be modulated (producing a wah effect).

AUDIO FILTER

The AUDIO FILTER’s CUTOFF (cutoff frequency, p. 51) will be modulated.
