1-3: FILTER

Res

(Resonance)

Range: 0 … 99

Determines the degree of filter resonance.
This parameter has a similar effect to the “resonance” settings on traditional

analog synthesizer filters — i.e. it determines the height of a peak in the filter
response at the cutoff frequency. If a filter type other than “LPF” is selected,
no resonance can be produced and “--” appears on the display in place of the
parameter.

Higher resonance values produce a higher resonant peak and reduce the

overall bandwidth of the filter, passing a narrow band of frequencies at the
filter’s cutoff.

Vel

(Velocity sensitivity)

Range: -63 … +63

Determines how the filter cutoff frequency changes in response to velocity

changes (e.g. keyboard dynamics).

Plus “+” settings produce higher cutoff frequencies in response to higher

velocity values — i.e. the harder a key is played, the higher the cutoff fre-
quency. The maximum setting of “+63” produces the maximum level variation
in response to velocity changes. Minus “–” settings produce the opposite effect:
lower cutoff in response to higher velocity. A setting of “+0” results in no
cutoff variation.
