Parameters 15
| Name | Type | Range | Behavior |
|---|---|---|---|
| Closed-hat decay button | button | — | 802 |
| Decay | knob | — | Adjusts open-hat decay time. When closed-hat decay button is pressed, adjusts closed-hat decay time instead. Turning fully CCW while setting closed-hat decay mutes it entirely. In drone mode, acts as a volume control.802 |
| Effect | knob | — | Controls the depth/parameter of the selected effect. Turning fully counter-clockwise bypasses the effect.802 |
| FILT | menu_setting | — | Selects the VCF filter type. Options: HiPass (three poles), Resonant HiPass, Band-pass (12dB/oct HP + 6dB/oct LP), Peak (highly resonant band-pass).802 |
| Filter | knob | — | Controls the VCF cutoff frequency. Works in conjunction with the selected filter type and range.802 |
| FX | menu_setting | — | Selects the digital effect applied to the noise source. Options: FM, Ring Modulation, LFO on Tune, Comb Filter, Metallizer, LFO on Amplitude, Up Filter Envelope, Down Filter Envelope, Sample Rate Reducer.802 |
| GAIN | menu_setting | — | Values 0-9: sets level without distortion (normal volume around 6-7). Values above 9 (A-J): enable distortion with increasing gain.802 |
| Load button | button | — | 802 |
| Menu select button | button | — | 802 |
| RNG | menu_setting | — | Sets the frequency range of the VCF and the fixed frequency of the end-of-chain low-cut filter. Options: Full, Medium (150 Hz), Low (1 kHz), High (10 kHz).802 |
| Save button | button | — | 802 |
| SRC | menu_setting | — | Selects the digital noise source algorithm. Options: Metal, 808, XOR, DR110, FM, Noise, Grains, 909, Eeprom, Cross-FM, Resonance noise, Bell, Sine, External.802 |
| Trigger button | button | — | 802 |
| Tune | knob | — | Controls the noise source tuning. Disabled when External source is selected. When External source is selected, this CV input accepts an external signal to be processed by the analog chain.802 |
| VLCT | menu_setting | 0 – 9 | Sets the minimum velocity level (minimum output level when 0V is received at the velocity input). Range 0-9.802 |
