Depress
a
pedal.
3.
Move
the
EMPHASIS
slider
to
5,
then
7.5.
Notice
how
the
sound
becomes
thinner
and
more
nasal.
4.
Watch
your
volume
setting
if
you
move
the
EMPHASIS
slider
between
7.5
and
10.
At
this
level
the
filter
feeds-back
to
produce
a
high-pitched
whistling
(just
like
a
microphone
feedback).
Actually,
what
has
happened
is
the
filter
has
become
another
sound
source,
producing
a
very
pure
sound.
This source
itself
may
be
useful
for
certain
effects.

Set
up
the
following
patch
on
the
filter.
6.
Depress
low
C
and
move
the
CUTOFF
slider.
Notice
it

the

of
the

top
C
and
notice
the
pitch
is
also
controlled
by
the
pedal
board.
To
obtain
an

tuning
from

to
top
C,
the

control
may
have
to
be
adjusted.
8.
Now
experiment
with
various
CUTOFF
and
EMPHASIS
settings.
These
two
controls
interplay
to
produce
subtle
to
obvious
tone
changes.
They
play
an
important
part
in
the
overall
sound
quality.

Move
the
AMOUNT
slider
to
0.
Notice
how
the
tone
color
drastically
changes,
just
like
it
did
with
the

slider.
The
AMOUNT
slider
adjusts
the
amount
of
Contour
controlling
the
Cutoff
(brightness).
Therefore,
the
Attack

Decay
sliders
and
the
Sustain
switch
affect
the
filter
(tone
color).

Move
the

slider
to
10.
Now
play
various
notes
and
experiment
with
the
Attack
and
Decay
sliders
in
the
Contour

section.
