Effect
Virtual VCF
This reproduces, virtually, the VCF (Voltage
Controlled Filter). The sounds from the VCO or input
from external sources are processed with a filter that
moves the cutoff frequency as needed, and creates
brightness (or hardness) in the tone and changes in
tone brightness over time. There is a mixer to set the
input level from each of the sound generators at the
input section of the VCF.
1.
Mixer
OSC1 (Oscillator 1), OSC2 (Oscillator 2), Noise,
ExtIn, Ring M
Sets the input level to the VCF from each of the sound
generators. Mute unneeded sounds by setting them to
0.
Value: 0–100
2.
Type
Sets the type of filter used.
3.
Curve
Sets the filter’s slope characteristics at the cutoff
frequency (-24 dB at one octave: steep; -12 dB at one
octave: shallow).
Value: -12 dB, -24 dB
Some analog synthesizers featured -12 dB/octave, -24
dB/octave, or other slopes.
4.
Cutoff (Cutoff Frequency)
Sets the filter’s cutoff frequency. Set this closer to zero,
the cutoff frequency becomes lower; set closer to 100,
the cutoff frequency becomes higher.
This setting varies with the addition of changes from
the envelope, LFO, and other changes.
Value: 0–100
5.
Reso (Resonance)
Sets the filter’s resonance level. Raising the setting
increases resonance near the cutoff frequency, giving
the sound a special characteristic.
Value: 0–100
If the resonance value is raised to much, extreme oscillation
can arise. Take care not to allow this sound to damage your
ears or your playback equipment. To stop this oscillation
immediately, press EFFECTS PROCESSOR [On/Off].
6.
Envelope
Depth (Envelope Depth)
Sets the depth of the Filter Envelope (the function of
changing the filter’s frequency characteristics over
time).
Value: -100–+100
A (Attack Time)
The elapsed time starting at the point Trigger In is
switched “On” to the point at which the cutoff
frequency reaches the peak value.
Value: 0–100
D (Decay Time)
The elapsed time from the point at which the cutoff
frequency reaches the peak value until reaching to the
sustain level (next item).
Value: 0–100
S (Sustain Level)
The level of the cutoff frequency after the decay time
(previous item) is passed and until Trigger In is
switched “Off.”
Value: 0–100
R (Release Time)
The elapsed time from when Trigger In is switched
“Off” until the cutoff frequency return to the original
(pre-attack) value.
These are the filter envelope settings. Select the contour
through the attack, decay, sustain, and release, and set the
degree of effect with the envelope depth. If a negative value
is selected for the envelope depth, the envelope shape is
inverted.
Value: 0–100
Value
Explanation
LPF
(Low pass filter)
Passes frequencies below the cut off
frequency.
BPF
(Band pass filter)
Passes frequencies near the cut off fre-
quency.
HPF
(High pass filter)
Passes frequencies above the cut off
frequency.
BEF
(Band eliminate
filter)
Passes frequencies other than those
near the cut off frequency.
