A Sample/Hold modulation of 100% will vary the destination’s

Sample/Hold Time between 0 and twice the specified Sample/Hold

Time.

PhaseShape Modulation

PhaseShape Modulation allows a signal to modulate another

module’s PhaseShaping. The destination module must use the

PhaseShaping process.

A PhaseShape Modulation of 100% will vary the destination’s

PhaseShaping amount between 0 and twice the specified

PhaseShaping percentage.

Power Modulation

Power Modulation allows a signal to modulate the power to which

another module’s signal is raised. The destination module must use

the Raise to Power process. You can produce unique effects by

automatically varying the Power over time.

Filter Frequency Modulation

Filter Frequency Modulation allows you to control the filter

frequency of another module. The destination module must use a

filter process (lowpass, highpass or bandpass).

A Filter Frequency Modulation of 100% will vary the destination’s

cutoff frequency between 0 and twice the specified cutoff.

(Modulations of less than 100% can be useful as a way of avoiding

artifacts caused by filtering in the 0 Hertz range.)

Filter frequencies can be modulated by sine waves, etc., as well as

by the outputs of Pitch Trackers or Envelope Followers. The Tutorial

chapter gives an example of a filter frequency being modulated by

the output of a Pitch Tracker. If you Filter Frequency Modulate a

signal using the output of an Envelope Follower, the result is a

Triggered Wah (“cry-cat”) effect.

If the Filter Frequency Modulation comes from a Pitch Tracker, the

destination’s specified cutoff frequency has no effect. It doesn’t

matter what frequency you enter, because the cutoff frequency will

be determined by the output of the Pitch Tracker times the

Modulation Amplitude.
