*B 1, Poly Mod Filter Envelope Amount

               Poly Mod Filter Envelope Amount
               ───────────────────────────────

 This parameter adjusts the level of the filter envelope
 generator source.  Various pitch and timbre sweeps can
 be obtained using the filter envelope generator to
 modulate FREQ A.

                        Value: 0 - 15

                 Poly Mod Oscillator B Amount
                 ────────────────────────────

 This parameter adjusts the level of OSC B source.  OSC B
 (through Poly Mod) will be useful for creating clangorous
 sounds such as bells, chimes, percussion, and "ring
 modulation" effects.

                        Value: 0 - 127

*B 5, Unison Modes

                        Unison Modes
                        ────────────

 This parameter lets you set 1 of 3 Unison Modes.

 Normal: While no keys are held, switch the Unison Track on.
 ──────  This will assign all six voices to the lowest key
         played.  This is similar to the Mini-Moog playing
         technique.  The difference is that all keys must be
         released for the envelopes to trigger the next note.

 Tracking: Play any chord, switch the Unison Track on.  This
 ────────  will "latch" the chord, so that any key you play
           becomes the root and all the upper intervals will
           follow along.

*P

                        Unison Modes
                        ────────────

 Single: Play and hold any note the switch the Unison Track
 ──────  on.  This assign one voice for tracking, albeit a
         thinner sound than Normal Unison Mode.

                   ────────────────────────

 This parameter adjusts the harmonic content of the pulse
 wave with a duty cycle between 1 to 99%.  A 50% duty cycle

                   Oscillator B Frequency
                   ──────────────────────

 This parameter adjusts oscillator B's pitch in semitones,
 over a 4 octave range.  Middle A, 440 Hz, is 2 octaves above
 0 on the knob.  Oscillator B can be a source of Poly Mod but
 cannot be the destination of Poly Mod.

*B 26, Filter Frequency Cutoff

                   Filter Frequency Cutoff
                   ───────────────────────

 This parameter adjusts the frequency of the 24 dB / octave
 4 - pole, low pass filter.  The higher frequencies, above
 this cutoff point, will be suppressed.  The higher the
 cutoff amount, the brighter the sound will be.

                        Value: 0 - 127

*B 27, Filter Resonance

                       Filter Resonance
                       ────────────────

 This parameter adjusts the amount of filter resonance (Q).
 As the resonance increases, the frequencies lower than the
 cutoff will become decreasingly audible in comparison with
 those nearer the cutoff.  As the amount goes past 7 on the
 knob, the filter breaks into self-oscillation and acts
 like a sine wave whose pitch is determined by the cutoff
 frequency.

                        Value: 0 ─ 63

*B 29, Filter Keyboard Full

                     Filter Keyboard Full
                     ────────────────────

 This parameter applies Keyboard CV information to the cutoff
 frequency just as it is normally applied to the oscillators.
 When the filter "tracks" the keyboard in this manner, the
 cutoff frequency is maintained at a consistent level across
 the keyboard.  If the Filter Resonance is set for self-
 oscillation and Full is on, the filter can then be "played"
 from the keyboard.  Note: Must be 0 if Keyboard ½ is on (1).


                      Full             1

*B 30, Filter Keyboard ½

                      Filter Keyboard ½
                      ─────────────────

 This parameter applies Keyboard CV information to the cutoff
 frequency just as it is normally applied to the oscillators.
 When the filter "tracks" the keyboard in this manner, the
 sound gets duller the higher up you go on the keyboard. This
 is a bit "brighter" than if the Filter Keyboard is OFF.
 Note: Must be 0 if Keyboard Full is on (1).

                      Full             0
                     - ½        - OR -  1
