Frequently Asked Questions
The two-step tracking offers a vintage feel; it’s less precise than modern filters, contributing to a slightly looser, more organic sound.
While usable, the ADSR’s slower attack and decay times are better suited for pads and evolving textures than snappy percussive elements.
It allows you to control the depth of the pulse width modulation, preventing it from becoming overly aggressive; while not essential, it's helpful for subtle modulation.
