VCO 2 oscillators can be completely disabled. This is to allow the creation of patches that
use the resonant filter as the oscillator or for single oscillator patches – something not possible with the
original Roland code even with the oscillator balance set to either extreme.

Additional hardware diagnostics
Europa includes additional hardware diagnostics on boot up that are valuable to both the Jupiter 6 owner
and the repair technician.

Voice allocation can be monitored on the front panel. This is useful for gauging voice utilization during
performance as well as assisting in debugging a malfunctioning Jupiter 6.

Patch edit compare
The patch edit compare feature allows comparing the current patch edit with any stored patch. This
makes hunting for a good spot to put the new patch edit easy, and allows A/B comparisons to the current
patch edit and any stored patch.

TUNE LED when MIDI data is being received. Great for debugging and knowing
when activity is present!

Assignable MIDI messages
Europa can assign incoming pitch bend, modulation wheel, channel aftertouch, and note velocity to any
continuous controller. It will respond to incoming pitch bend messages as an assignable controller but
will not alter the pitch of the notes played as a traditional pitch bend would. Incoming note velocity is
changed on a per voice board basis and affects all held notes on a given SPLIT
SPLITSPLIT
SPLIT. Europa will not transmit
pitch bend, key press velocity, or aftertouch.
