4 Resonance*/ Width
This parameter’s function varies according to the selected
Filter Type. If the selected filter is an LPF, HPF, BPF
(excluding the BPFw), or BEF, this parameter is used to set
the Resonance. For the BPFw, it is used to adjust the
frequency bandwidth
Resonance is used to set the amount of Resonance
(harmonic emphasis) applied to the signal at the cutoff
frequency. This can be used in combination with the cutoff
frequency parameter to add further character to the sound.
The Width parameter is used to adjust the width of the band
of signal frequencies passed by the filter with the BPFw.
When the Filter Type is set to “LPF6” or “thru,” this
parameter is not available.
Settings: 0 – 127
5 Resonance Velocity Sens
(Resonance Velocity Sensitivity)
Determines the degree to which resonance responds to
velocity, or the strength with which you play notes. For
positive values, the higher the velocity, the greater the
resonance. A setting of 0 results in no change of the
Resonance value. For negative values, the lower the
velocity, the greater the resonance.
Settings: -64 – +0 – +63
6 Gain
Determines the Gain of the signal sent to the filter. The
lower the value, the lower the Gain. The tonal
characteristics generated by the filter differ depending on
the value set here.
Settings: 0 – 255
7 Cutoff Key Follow
Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically,
their position or octave range) affect the Cutoff Frequency
(set above) of the selected Element, assuming C3 as the
basic pitch. A positive setting will lower the Cutoff
frequency for lower notes and raise it for higher notes. A
negative setting will have the opposite effect.
Settings: -200% – 0% – +200%
8 Center Key (Indication only)
This indicates that the central note for Cutoff Key Follow
(7) above is C3. Keep in mind that this is for display
purposes only; the value cannot be changed.

9 Distance
Determines the distance between the two Cutoff
frequencies, for the Dual Filter types (which feature two
identical filters combined in parallel), and the LPF12 +
BPF6 type. When any of other filter types is selected, this
parameter is not available.
Settings: -128 – +0 – +127
) HPF Cutoff (High Pass Filter Cutoff Frequency)
Determines the central frequency for the Key Follow
parameter (below) of the HPF. When a filter type “LPF12” or
“LPF6” is selected, this parameter is available.
Settings: 0 – 255
! HPF Key Follow (High Pass Filter Key Follow)
Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically,
their position or octave range) affect the Cutoff Frequency
(set above) of the HPF. A positive setting will lower the
Cutoff frequency for lower notes and raise it for higher
notes. A negative setting will have the opposite effect.
When a filter type “LPF12” or “LPF6” is selected, this
parameter is available.
Settings: -200% – 0% – +200%
@ Center Key
This indicates that the central note for High Pass Filter Key
Follow (!) above is C3. Keep in mind that this is for display
purposes only; the value cannot be changed.
From this display you can set the Filter EG parameters.
Using the FEG, you can control the change in tone from the
moment the sound starts to the moment it stops.
