I can't remember how I did it - it was with the instruction manual on my lap. I'm one of those Luddite electronic musicians who easily gets frustrated with new technology. I almost gave up my microkorg because I don't like the concept of digging through menus to change parameters - especially during live shows. At my last band practice, I wasted 5 minutes trying to find the switch that toggles between from monophonic and polyphonic. Instead, I found two or three presets that were close to what I wanted as a "basic building block". With instruction manual in hand, I turned off most of the lfos, etc on those sounds and figured out how to save them as the first 3 presets. They pretty much just go "ooooo" like sine waves. When I play the instrument, it runs through the same fx that my drum machine usually does, so the only settings I need to change on the keyboard are filter sweeps and attack/sustain/release. I do fuzz/tremelo/etc on external effects. If I remember correctly, one of the menus on the matrix had a switch for mod wheel functionality - there were 5 or 6 different options. I think the band-pass was the default for the preset I was using. I might be naming it wrong, but it sounds like a super resonant band-pass filter to me.
