Explore the sound

BBD panel: Bias 25%, Leak 4.3 dB/s, Bleed −inf dB, CTI 45% and Compander enabled

BBD

The pink panel brings together Bias, Leak, Bleed and CTI, with a Compander switch beneath them. Leak is shown in dB per second; Bleed is shown in dB.

[check] Confirm what Bias, Leak, Bleed, CTI and Compander do before adding a description of their sound.

PCM panel: Bits 12, Rate ÷1.00, Jitter 5%, Soft Clip, Dither off and μ-law on

PCM

The green panel has Bits and Rate controls, Jitter, a Clip menu and separate switches for Dither and μ-law. The view shown uses 12 bits and Soft clipping.

[check] Confirm the Rate divider, Jitter behaviour and the available Clip settings before describing them in more detail.

1972 panel: RC 140 Hz, Hyst 0%, VCO Nz 25%, Drive 0 dB and Stall off

1972

The blue panel has RC, Hyst, VCO Nz and Drive controls, plus a Stall switch. RC is shown in Hz and Drive in dB.

[check] Confirm what RC, Hyst, VCO Nz and Stall do; the labels alone do not establish the circuit behaviour.

In detail

Character panel with Stages, Auto, Tone, Noise, Drift and Head controls

Character

Stages and Auto sit above Tone, Noise, Drift and Head. Tone is displayed in kHz, Noise and Head in dB, and Drift as a percentage.

[check] Confirm how Stages and Auto interact, what Head adjusts and how Tone, Noise and Drift affect the delay.

FM panel with Amount at 0%, Rate at 110 Hz, Sine source, Free mode, Linear law and Time destination

FM

Set Amount and Rate, then choose Source, Mode, Law and Dest from the menus. This view shows a Sine source, Free mode, Linear law and Time as the destination.

[check] Confirm the available sources, modes, laws and destinations, and how FM is applied.

LFO panel with Amount at 0%, Rate at 0.50 Hz, Sine source, Free mode, Expo law and Time destination

LFO

The LFO has its own Amount and Rate, alongside Source, Mode, Law and Dest menus. This view shows a 0.50 Hz Sine source, Free mode, Expo law and Time as the destination.

[check] Confirm the LFO routing and menu options before describing modulation beyond this view.
