VOICE the synthesizer features 2 oscillators VCO (with crossmodulation) that can be played either in MONOPHONIC mode or independently in DUOPHONIC one. Both VCOs can be set at different volume gain and mixed with a white noise generator and external filtered signal input.
TECH:
for some strange reason the glide mode only affects VCO1 .
