Calibration
Before using Timbre Wolf for the first time (after letting it warm up), we recommend calibrating its
voices. You can also do this in the future as needed, though you shouldn’t have to do it often.
Important: During calibration, Timbre Wolf’s keyboard and sequencer will be disabled, and no audio
signal or messages will be sent out of the Gate Out, MIDI Out, Voice Outputs, Main Out, or Phones
Out. Also, the calibration process ignores the positions of each voice’s Tune knob, so all voices will
calibrate properly regardless of their control settings.
To calibrate the tuning of Timbre Wolf’s voices:
1. Press and hold Shift and then press Step Switch 1 (Tune). CAL will appear in the display.
2. While still holding Shift, do one of the following:
• Press Step Switch 1 (Tune) again to confirm that you want to calibrate.
• Release Shift to cancel the operation.
3. After pressing Step Switch 1 (Tune), the display will show various note values as the voices
calibrate, and the Step Indicators will light in various patterns.
4. When the calibration is done, Step Indicator 1 will flash. To return to normal operation, press
Step Switch 1 (Tune).
Voice Settings
In addition to the seven Voice Controls for each of the four voices, there are a few other settings that
affect how Timbre Wolf uses its voices.
Mono, Poly, or Unison
Use the Voice Mode Selector to set Timbre Wolf’s voice mode (Mono, Poly, or Unison). This
setting determines how its voices are played as well as other features (Priority, Legato, and MIDI
Channel).
Mono
Each voice is played monophonically and independently.
The keyboard will play the currently selected voice. To select a voice, press its Mute/Select button.
The sequencer will play all four voices independently and simultaneously as each voice has its own
track in a sequence. The Step Indicators will show the steps for the currently selected track (one of
four) in the current sequence. To select a track, press its Mute/Select button. The sequences of all
four tracks will also be sent out as MIDI note messages, which can be used to sequence external
devices (drum machines, other synths, etc.) along with Timbre Wolf.
When Timbre Wolf receives MIDI note messages (through its MIDI In) on the MIDI channel for each
voice, all four voices can play independently simultaneously.
Poly
As a series of notes plays, each note will be played by a separate voice in sequential order (Voice 1
will play the first note, Voice 2 will play the second note, etc. and eventually cycle back to Voice 1).
Notes played by the keyboard will be played by each voice in a rotation, as described above.
The sequencer will play the steps for the first track (of four) only, but the notes will be played by each
voice in a rotation, as described above. The sequences of all four tracks will also be sent out as MIDI
note messages, which can be used to sequence external devices (drum machines, other synths, etc.)
along with Timbre Wolf.
When Timbre Wolf receives MIDI note messages (through its MIDI In) on the MIDI channel for the first
voice only, that voice will play. MIDI note messages sent to the other voices will be ignored.
