hi everyone, i'm a new member (well actually i already have a lurking
old account elsewhere which i'll unsub)

quick question:
i turn vco1 and vco2 levels all the way down in the mixer, and i
still here tones when i hit the keys. i thought nothing should come
out, what am i missing?

any help? thanks

Turn down your ring modulation level.

If turning down your ring mod dosen't work, your
feedback or noise levels might be turned up. lower
them
also.

1. Maybe the sound is a "dual sound", you can se that on the display, if
so you should turn down the vco levels on both scenes.

2. If Ring Mod is used in the sound turn down the Ring Mod level (The
Ring Mod is a multiplication of the output of vco1 and vco2)

3. If Noise is used turn down the Noise level.

4. The resonance of the filter can generate a sine sound if it is turned
al the way up (self oscillate), so check the filter resonance to se if
it is generating a sound.

5. On the AN1x the feedback level do influence the sensitivity of self
oscillating in the filters. The HPF and the BPF often starts to self
oscillate when you turn up the feedback level.
