Play a staccato line. The filter cutoff will change after every note that you play, so
each note has a different tone color. However, the cutoff glides from one frequency to
the next because of the smoothing action that is associated with S+H OUT 2. Note that
the LFO RATE sets the speed of the glide.
LFO Modulation of the MF101 Lowpass Filter
BASIC SETUP: TRIANGULAR MODULATION OF THE FILTER
• Connect patch cords as follows:
a) LFO Triangular Out jack to ATTENUATOR IN jack,
b) ATTENUATOR OUT jack to MF101 CUTOFF,
c) Expression pedal to LFO PEDAL IN jack.
• Set knobs as follows:
a) CP251 LFO RATE to 0.2 Hz; ATTENUATOR to 5,
b) MF101: AMOUNT “ 0” ; MIX “ 10” ; CUTOFF mid-position; RESONANCE “ 7” .
This patch features triangle wave modulation of the MF101 filter. The attenuator
controls the amount of up and down sweep, the expression pedal and LFO RATE knob
control the speed of the modulation, and the MF101 CUTOFF knob sets the center of
the modulation range.
Variation 1: Square Wave Modulation
Setup is same as above, except the LFO’s Square Wave output is used instead of the
Triangular Wave output. Note the difference in the effect.
Variation 2: Ramp Wave modulation
• Connect more patch cords as follows:
a) LFO Square Wave to LAG IN jack,
b) LAG OUT jack to ATTENUATOR IN jack.
• Set LAG knobs as follows:
a) RISE to “ 0”
b) FALL to” 7”
Using either the expression pedal or the RATE knob, adjust the LFO rate to 2-6 Hz. Note
