Filter keyboard tracking in Animoog?

I haven't been able to find a dedicated keyboard tracking parameter, so I just wanted to confirm that the way to do this would be through the modulation matrix. Would Control: key-pitch >> Destination: filter-frequency be the correct modulation path for this? It seems to work ok with the filter set to self-oscillate, but the filter doesn't respond to pitchbend. Is there another way that I'm missing?
If there isn't some other mystical magical method aside from what I already tried, would lack of filter tracking via pitchbend qualify as a feature, or a bug?

You did it right.
Not responding to pitchbend, must be some kind of bug/glitch in programming.
Though, I'll suggest go through the timbres and load one of the SINE, if what you want is to play the sound of a self-oscillating filter.
Cheers,

Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I already experimented with the sine timbre, which is nice to have access to, but unfortunately, you can't tune different timbres in a patch to different pitches. I was hoping to get a two-oscillator effect out of Animoog by self-oscillating the filter and then using the cutoff dial to tune the filter tone against a sine loaded in the timbre section (and be able to do fifth, third, even octave harmonies). Not having the filter track pitchbend kinda ruins the effect, though, as the timbre tracks pitchbend, but the filter stays static until you trigger another note.
If the devs are reading, could you consider this a feature request? Filter tracking keyboard pitch *plus* pitchbend via the modulation matrix?

I second that!
