Audio In

This socket is the filter’s audio input. Patch the
output of a sound source (such as a VCO, noise
generator or mixer) into it.

"

FCV 1

Socket FCV 1 is a voltage control input for the filter
frequency
. It works to the 1 V / octave standard (like
a VCO).

If you patch a modulation source (eg LFO, ADSR) to
this input, the cut-off frequency of the filter will be
modulated by its voltage: ie., the sound color changes
according to the voltage put out by the modulator.

If you use the VCF as a sine wave oscillator, connect
the pitch CV into this socket. Do the same if you want
the filter’s cut-off frequency to track exactly with the
pitch of a note.

§

FCV 2

Socket FCV 2 is another voltage control input for
the filter.
Unlike CV 1, you can control the level of
voltage - the intensity of the modulation effect on the
filter - with attenuator 3.

$

QCV 1

This socket is the voltage control input for the filter’s
resonance. It works to the 1 V / octave standard (like
a VCO).

If you patch a modulation source (eg LFO, ADSR) to
this input, the resonance of the filter will be modulated
by its voltage: ie., the sound color of the frequencies
around the cut-off point changes according to the
voltage put out by the modulator.

%

QCV 2

This is another voltage control input for controlling
the resonance
, but unlike QCV1 it gives you the ability
to use Attenuator 5 to control the amount of voltage
control, and therefore the intensity of its effect on the
filter’s resonance.

respective filter types (see Fig.1).
