DCO-1/DCO-2 Section

This section is used to select the waveforms that determine the character of the sound, and to set the pitch.

Controller

(Parameter)

Value

Explanation

[LFO] slider

0–10

Sets how much LFO modulation is applied to DCO-1 and DCO-2.

[TUNE] knob

-1OCT–+1OCT

Shifts the pitch in units of a semitone.

[FINE TUNE] knob

-–+

Finely adjusts the pitch.

[RANGE] switch

2' ,4' ,8' ,16'

Sets the octave for DCO-1 and DCO-2.

[WAVEFORM] knob

This knob sets the waveform.

Sawtooth wave

Pulse wave

ē

Square wave

Noise

[CROSS MOD]

switch

This selects the mode in which the modulation operates.

X-MOD

The DCO-1 and DCO-2 interact to generate the pitch, harmonic components and

output waveform.

SYNC

Synchronizes the oscillators. This creates a complex waveform by forcibly restarting

DCO-2 so that it syncs with the cycle of DCO-1.

OFF

DCO-1 and DCO-2 each generate their own pitches and waveforms.

[DCO-1 ENV] knob

[DCO-2 ENV] knob

0–10

Adjusts how much the envelope selected with the MODE switch is used to

modulate DCO-1 and DCO-2.

[MODE] switch

(NORMAL),

1

(INVERSE),

2

(NORMAL),

2

(INVERSE)

Selects the envelope and polarity that controls the DCO.
