In the example below, the lower half of the slider knob defines the vibrato intensity
when the modulation wheel is turned down. The upper half defines the vibrato
intensity that takes place when the modulation wheel is set to its maximum value.
Note: To invert the effect of the via modulation source, simply activate the Via invert
(inv) parameter in the Router.
A Modulation Example
Say you’ve chosen these settings:
• Target = Pitch 123
• via = Wheel
• Source = LFO1
• Modulation intensity = slider position, set as desired
In this configuration, the modulation source—LFO1—is used to modulate the
frequency (pitch) of all three Oscillators (Pitch 123). (Pitch 123) is the modulation target
in this example. You’ll hear a vibrato (a modulation of the pitch) at the speed of LFO 1’s
Rate. The modulation intensity is controlled by the (modulation) wheel, which is
determined by the via parameter. This provides you with control over the depth of
vibrato (pitch modulation) via the modulation wheel of your keyboard. This type of
configuration is well-known in countless sound settings (patches).
It does not matter which of the ten Router Channels you use.
You can select the same target in several Router Channels, in parallel. You can freely use
the same Sources as often as you like, and the same via controllers can be set in one or
multiple Router channels.
Modulation Targets
The following targets are available for real-time modulation.
Note: These modulation targets are also available for the X and Y axes of the X/Y
modulator (the Square). See “The Square” section, on page 272.
Pitch 123
This target allows the parallel modulation of the frequencies (pitch) of all three
oscillators. If you select an LFO as the source, this target leads to siren or vibrato sounds.
Select one of the envelope generators with zero attack, short decay, zero sustain, and
short release as the source for tom tom and kick drum sounds.
