8 Listen to the effect. Note how Trigger and
Hold is used to cause modulation to follow the
amplitude. This provides a much more interest-
ing type of modulation than standard envelope
following.
9 Adjust the Mod Threshold to vary the modu-
lation on 1/4 note accents.
10 Choose “Res. –16 note Trig & Hold.” This set-
ting demonstrates a similar type of modulation
that occurs on 16th notes.
11 Choose “Wah Res-LFO Faux Flange.” This
setting demonstrates a basic flanging-type ef-
fect. Try changing the Rate parameter and
switching to the Resonator+. Experiment with
the Mod Type for interesting effects.

loop. This setting uses ring modulation, and
trigger and hold for modulation that changes
only on audio peaks.

matches the dynamics of the source audio.
7 Choose “Freq. Mod Env. F. Kit.” This setting
demonstrates frequency modulation.
8 Experiment with the other settings.
