SPECTRALIS 2

Hybrid engine - Multimode-filter and filter-routing

The (CUTOFF MM)-button opens the multimode-filter menu. On the second

menu- page you will find the envelope sensitivity “EgAm”. Turn it up, to

experiment with the effect of the envelope on this filter. The corresponding

filter-envelope can be found by pushing the (EG-Depth)-encoder button and

by pushing the [Page-Up]-button twice. Keep in mind that the effect of the

envelope will only be noticeable when the frequency encoder (CUTOFF MM)

is not completely open.

TIP: Have you noticed that the “EgAm” encoder can also be set to a

negative value? Just imagine a mirror image of the envelope around the

0 level axis. With the help of a negative value you will end up with a

reversed envelope. According to this statement the oscillation time will

affect the frequency negatively, rather than positively. This is a very useful

characteristic, especially with an eye toward the highpass filter.
