THE EFFECT DEVICES

353

D-11 Foldback Distortion

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

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 de-

vice (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 de-

signed 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. However, 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.

D 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 modulation.

Hence, all filter parameters are “static”, unless you manually turn the knobs or au-

tomate them in the sequencer.

D 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 itself - the

envelope parameters won’t do anything unless the device receives gate signals.

D 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 re-

fer to the Subtractor chapter for a description of these.

The Filter Parameters

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 fold-

back, 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.
