⊕ Synth Engine

Oscillators

■ Osc 1
■ Osc 2
■ Sub Osc (3)
■ Noise generator

Osc 1 & 2
Select between waveforms:
■ sine
■ triangle
■ sawtooth
■ square/variable pulse width

Features

■ Sync 1 & 2
■ Detune
■ Octave range
■ Pitch bend
■ Pitch modulation from Mod Envelope and/or LFO 1
■ Pulse width modulation from Mod Envelope and/or LFO 2

Sub Osc (3) which is tracked to Osc 1
Select independently between waveforms:

■ Sine
■ Square
■ Narrow pulse

Features

■ All modulation and tuning tracked to Osc 1
■ Independent octave select

Mixer

■ Osc 1 level
■ Osc 2 level
■ Sub Osc level
■ Noise generator level
■ Ring modulation depth
■ External signal level

Filter
Two filter types

■ Acid type (diode ladder filter design)
■ Classic type (derived from original Bass Station)

Features

■ Cutoff
■ Resonance
■ Overdrive
■ Filter frequency to Mod Envelope depth
■ Filter frequency to LFO 2 depth

Select ‘Classic’ filter between:

■ Low pass
■ Band pass
■ High pass
■ 12dB slope
■ 24dB slope

Envelopes
Two ADSR Envelopes (Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release)

■ Amp Envelope
■ Mod Envelope
■ Combined control of both Envelopes

Select triggering mode between:

■ Single trigger (holds envelope state when new note is played)
■ Multi trigger (re-triggers with every new note played)
■ Autoglide (engages portamento)
There is also a VCA limiter

LFO
Two LFOs each selectable between:

■ Triangle
■ Sawtooth
■ Square
■ Sample and hold
■ Both LFOs independently adjustable between rate and delay time
■ Key sync LFO 1 & 2
■ LFO slew on LFO 1& 2 (low pass filter on the LFO waveform)

Effects

■ Distortion send
■ Oscillator filter mod amount (FM effect created by Oscillator 2 modulating filter freq)

Step Sequencer/Arpeggiator
Arpeggiator

■ Up to 32 different patterns
■ Select between 1-4 octave range
■ Swing function
■ Select direction:
■ up
■ down
■ up / down 1
■ up / down 2
■ As played
■ Random
■ Latch (hold the arpeggiator)

Step Sequencer

■ Up to four sequences
■ Assign one of 32 preset rhythms or create your own
■ insert rests or legato (slide)
■ Sequencer re-trigger function

Portamento

■ Adjust glide time
■ Single trigger or re-trigger modes
■ Integrate into step sequencer and arpeggiator
