parameter will be very useful to add “groove” to a sequence for hip hop
music, for example.
ACCENT
Bring an additional modulation to the selected step thanks to an “Attack” /
“Decay” envelope applied to the cutoff frequency of the VCF low pass
filter. This unit is comparable to the one that is located on the very
famous TB303. The possibility to edit the attack time was added to the
original unit to allow more flexibility.
A: Attack time of the accent envelope
D: Decay time of the accent envelope
LEVEL: Knob that controls the modulation amount of the accent to the
low pass VCF Filter.
