Hello!

Unfortunately, I can't find any user manual for this wonderful synth.
So, does anyone knows what are these UI elements for?

* attached image "charlatan.jpg" - arrow 1 - two buttons below the "Amp" knob: some curved line and kind of histogram
* attached image "charlatan.jpg" - arrow 2 - curved line right to phase value
* attached image "charlatan-2.jpg" - arrow 3 - phaser effect controls
* attached image "charlatan-2.jpg" - arrow 4 - two reverb buttons
* attached image "charlatan-2.jpg" - arrow 5 - delay knobs "Factor" and "Color"
* attached image "charlatan-2.jpg" - arrow 6 - chorus button
While there is no PDF, there is a text file user guide. However, I can answer most of them. The button between the oscillators determines if the pair goes through the filter or bypasses it. The waveform next to "Phase" allows one to enable modulation for the oscillator's phase (same with the sine next to "Ratio", which is for pitch modulation). The controls for the phaser determine the phaser type, number of bands, and polarity (+/-). I am not sure what the button for chorus does, but I guess it's an EQ Bypass. Reverb has a cloud mode and a diffuse mode. Factor is for changing the delay time, and color determines the filter for the delays (left for lowpass and right for highpass).
Thank you for the reply. Just a few clarifications:

> The button between the oscillators determines if the pair goes through the filter or bypasses it.

It's for the button with the curved line. But what about the histogram one?

> While there is no PDF, there is a text file user guide

Wow! I didn't know. Where can I download it?

> The controls for the phaser determine the phaser type

What does "PH" and "AP" mean?
PH and AP- presumably Phaser and All Pass. I'm going to assume that regular phaser is notch filters sweeping as differentiated from all pass filters (phase rotation).
