Another important sound modulation source is the FILTER ENVELOPE. This provides
dynamic control over either the FILTER Cutoff, OSCILLATOR Pulse Width, or the
Metalizer harshness. The FILTER ENVELOPE amount and polarity are controlled by
the Env Amt knobs, which are very useful when you want to create lively sounds.
5.3 External sound processing
Plug your external audio source in the Audio In 1/8'' jack [4.3.5] on the MiniBrute’s
rear panel. Your audio source must provide line level signals, so with electric guitar
you’ll need to patch a preamp or other processor (e.g., compressor, distortion,
multieffects) between the guitar and the Audio In. Adjust the OSCILLATOR MIXER’s
Audio In slider to the desired level.
When using an external audio input, select a GATE Source setting that corresponds
to how you want to process the external source.
• To trigger the envelopes with the keyboard, set the GATE Source switch on
the MiniBrute’s rear panel to the KBD position.
• To hear the external source continuously and process it, select the Hold
position.
• To trigger the envelopes when the external signal level exceeds a fixed
threshold, select the Audio In position (you can change the threshold level
using the MiniBrute's software; see chapter 4.4.
The following setting produces an auto-wha effect combined with tremolo. The
Modulation wheel controls the amount of tremolo (make sure that the CONTROLS
section’s MOD Wheel switch is set to LFO Amt).
