turn up
FILT 1 HP
, effectively giving you a “
HIGHPASS
” input to
FILTER 2
instead of a notch.
- When using
BP
as the input to
FILTER 2
, you can invert the bandpass
filtering by pressing the
BP INVERT
button in the
POST FILTER MIX
module.
RING MOD Signal Routing
The signal routing of the Ring Modulator has a unique feature that allows you to
bypass the Filters while still routing the
RING MOD
signal as in the above examples.
This allows you to hear the filtered and unfiltered Ring Modulator simultaneously.
You can’t do that with the other components of
PRE FILTER MIX
.
• To hear the Ring Modulator in its purest form, turn all four knobs in
PRE
FILTER MIX
fully counter-clockwise. This turns off all of the
PRE FILTER MIX
components going to the Filters.
In
POST FILTER MIX
, press the
RING MOD
button located near the bottom of this
module until the LED is off. (If the
OSC 1 SINE
or
OSC 2 SINE
LEDs are lit, press
those buttons to turn them off.) This connects the Ring Modulator’s output to
the
PRE FILTER
knob, bypassing the Filters. Use this knob to control the level of
the unfiltered Ring Modulator signal.
Try pressing the
MOD
button and assigning
ENV 1 (PITCH)
to shape the loudness
of the Ring Modulator’s signal, especially if the Filter Envelope is being used
to control the other signals.
• To hear this unfiltered Ring Modulator signal along with filtering, raise the
RING MOD
control in the
PRE FILTER MIX
. Then follow one of the procedures on
the previous page to route the
RING MOD
signal, in parallel, through one or
both of the Filters.
