THE EFFECT DEVICES

161

D-11 Foldback Distortion

The D-11 is a simple but effective distortion effect, capable of producing any-

thing from just a whisper soft touch of distortion, to complete thrashing. This

effect is most often used as an insert effect.

Parameters

The distortion has the following parameters:

CV Inputs

On the D-11 you will find a CV input for controlling the Amount parameter.

This can produce very drastic effects, especially if you control parameters in

the instrument device (such as filter frequency and resonance) at the same

time.

ECF-42 Envelope

Controlled Filter

The ECF-42 is a multimode filter with a built in envelope generator. It is

mainly designed to be used together with pattern devices to create pattern

controlled filter and envelope effects, but it can also be triggered via MIDI, or

used as a “static” filter for shaping the sound of an instrument device or a

whole mix.

Usage

The Envelope Controlled Filter is best connected as an insert effect. How-

ever, unlike the other effects it is not a pure “stand-alone” device. To make

the most of the ECF-42, you need either CV/Gate from an external device or

MIDI notes from a sequencer track.

➜ If you connect a device to the ECF-42 using audio inputs/outputs

only, it will simply act as a filter with no velocity or envelope modu-

lation.

Hence, all filter parameters are “static”, unless you manually turn the

knobs or automate them in the sequencer.

➜ Connecting a gate signal to the Env Gate input on the back panel of

the device allows you to trigger the envelope generator for the filter.

Note that the ECF-42 envelope generator is not triggered by the audio it-

self - the envelope parameters won’t do anything unless the device re-

ceives gate signals.

➜ By creating a sequencer track connected to the ECF-42, you can

have the envelope triggered by MIDI notes on the track.

The envelope is affected by the position, length and velocity of the MIDI

notes (but not by their pitch).

✪ If you are unfamiliar with basic filter and envelope parameters,

please refer to the Subtractor chapter for a description of these.

Parameter

Description

Amount This controls the amount of distortion. The higher the

value, the more distortion.

Foldback This adjusts the character of the distortion by introducing

foldback, which makes the waveform more complex.

The default value is in the middle position. This produces

a “flat” clipping distortion, which is the most common type.

Lowering the parameter makes the sound rounder and

more gentle, raising it makes the sound sharper and more

evil.
