Osc Phase (Phase) This sets the initial phase of the oscillator. The range represents one
whole cycle.
Retrigger (R) When enabled, the oscillator restarts at the same position in its phase each
time a note is triggered. With R disabled, the oscillator is free-running.
Repeat Higher harmonics can be generated by repeating the drawn partials with a gradual
fadeout, based on the settings in the Repeat chooser. Low Repeat values result in a
brighter sound, while higher values result in more high-end roll-off and a more prominent
fundamental. With Repeat off, partials above the 16th, 32nd or 64th harmonic are truncated.
Osc Frequency<Velocity (Osc<Vel) The frequency of an oscillator can be modulated by
note velocity. Positive values raise the oscillator's pitch with greater velocities, and negative
values lower it.
Osc Freq<Vel Quantized (Q) This allows quantizing the effect of the Frequency<Velocity
parameter. If activated, the sonic result is the same as manually changing the Coarse
parameter for each note.
Volume Envelope Rates<Velocity (Time<Vel) This parameter exists for lter, pitch, LFO and
volume envelopes. It is therefore listed in the section on envelopes.
Osc Output Level<Velocity (Vel) This denes how much the oscillator's level depends upon
note velocity. Applying this to modulating oscillators creates velocity-dependent timbres.
Osc Output Level<Key (Key) This denes how much the oscillator's level depends upon
note pitch. The center point for this function is C3.
Envelope Display
Envelope Attack Time (Attack) This sets the time it takes for a note to reach the peak level,
starting from the initial level. For the oscillator envelopes, the shape of this segment of
the envelope is linear. For the lter and pitch envelopes, the shape of the segment can be
adjusted.
Envelope Decay Time (Decay) This sets the time it takes for a note to reach the sustain
level from the peak level. For the oscillator envelopes, the shape of this segment of the
envelope is exponential. For the lter and pitch envelopes, the shape of the segment can
be adjusted.
