Pad-X, Pad-Y
Both axes of the Square (the Vector Envelope) are available as via sources as well,
enabling you to control modulation intensities with them.
Kybd
Kybd (Keyboard) outputs the keyboard position (the MIDI note number). The center
point is C3 (an output value of 0). Five octaves below and above, an output value of −1
or +1, respectively is sent.
If you select Pitch 123 as the target, modulate it with the LFO1 source, and select
Keyboard as the via value, the vibrato depth will change, dependent on key position.
Put another way, the vibrato depth will be different for notes higher or lower than the
defined Keyboard position.
Velo
If you select Velo (Velocity) as the via value, the modulation intensity will be velocity
sensitive—modulation will be more or less intense dependent on how quickly (hard)
you strike the key.
Bender
The pitch bender controls the modulation intensity.
ModWhl
If you select ModWhl (Modulation Wheel) as the via value, the modulation intensity will
be controlled by your MIDI keyboard’s modulation wheel.
The Least Significant Bit (LSB) Controller for the modulation wheel is recognized
correctly, as well.
Touch
If you select Touch (Aftertouch) as the via value, the modulation intensity will be touch
sensitive—modulation will be more or less intense dependent on how firmly you press
the key of your touch-sensitive MIDI keyboard after the initial keystrike (aftertouch is
also known as pressure sensitivity).
Whl+To
Both modulation wheel and aftertouch control the modulation.
MIDI Controllers A–F
MIDI controllers available in the mod matrix are named Ctrl A–F (rather than
Expression, Breath, General Purpose 1–4. MIDI Control Change Messages 16–19 are also
known as “General Purpose Slider 1/2/3/4”.) and can be assigned to arbitrary controller
numbers (via menus at the bottom of the GUI). The default values for the assignment
guarantee backwards compatibility. The values of these assignment menus are only
updated if the default setting is loaded, or if a setting that was saved with a song is
loaded. If you simply step through settings, the assignment will remain unchanged.
