From the Owner's Manual:
"The Key Track setting determines the key tracking of the VCF, raising
or lowering the cutoff frequency point in accordance with notes played
on the keyboard. When Key Track is applied, the cutoff range shifts
accordingly at every note, with C3 as the base." Pg. 68
What this means in plain english:
Say you have programmed a new voice and set the filter cutoff to your
liking. You then decide that the mid-range sound okay but the low end
is to flatulent. Use a positive value - small amounts are usually
satisfactory - to balance out the filter cutoff across the playable
range of the sound you have programmed. Conversely, if the upper end is
too bright, use a negative value to reduce the effect key position has
on filter cutoff. Key Tracking is generally more applicable when
programming voices that emulate 'natural' or 'acoustic' type sounds such
as woodwinds, strings, etc. For more extreme synth sounds it can be
used to exaggerate the desired effect.
Hope this helps,
Jon
