Moog Sub 37

The Sub 37's voice across four pages: oscillators and mixer, filter, the visible ADSR envelopes, and the KNOB SHIFT layer underneath them.

Page 4 is the reason this exists. Both Sub 37 envelopes are DAHDSR, but the panel only ever shows you ADSR; delay, hold, velocity amount and keyboard tracking share those four knobs behind the KNOB SHIFT button. Here they get eight knobs of their own, so you can see and automate both layers at the same time, which the synth itself cannot do.

Twenty-six of the thirty-two knobs run at 14-bit resolution, which is 16,384 steps instead of 128. Filter sweeps are noticeably smoother for it.

Switches cover hard sync, duo mode, glide, arpeggiator and latch, and the three keyboard reset options. Modulation lives in a companion setup, because the Sub 37 has two full mod busses and they will not fit alongside the voice.

Every CC is taken from Moog's own MIDI implementation chart. Set the setup's channel to match the Sub 37's, which is channel 1 by default.
