Resonance
Emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff. For an electronic sound, increase the
resonance. At higher resonance settings, the filter self-oscillates, which results in a
ringing tone.
Distortion
Adds distortion to the signal. The effect depends on the selected type. At higher
settings, it creates a very intense distortion effect.
Envelope Faders and Velocity Control
With the envelope faders, you can specify the attack, decay, sustain, and release
times of the filter envelope.
The Velocity control determines how much the envelope intensity depends on
velocity. When the control is set to 0, the envelope is fully applied. Higher values
reduce the intensity for lower velocities.

Level
Adjusts the level of the sound.
Normally, the internal headroom of 12 dB in Padshop allows for polyphonic playback
without the need for level adjustments. However, when working with higher filter
distortion levels, it can become necessary to reduce the level.
Pan
Sets the position of the sound in the stereo panorama.
Envelope Faders and Velocity Control
With the envelope faders, you can specify the attack, decay, sustain, and release
times of the amplifier envelope.
The Velocity control determines how much the output level depends on velocity.
When the control is set to 0, the sound is always played back at its full amplitude.
Higher values reduce the level for lower velocities.
