Modulators^
Modulation
means
change.
The
use
of
the
modulators
will
give
you
unusual
changes
in
the
outputs
of
the
audio
generators
or
filter.
As
the
performer,
you
will
be
able
to
control
the
amount
of
these
changes,
the
speed
of
the
changes,
and
the
portions
of
the
synthesizer
that
may
be
affected
by
these
changes.
The
modulation
section
of
Taurus
II
provides
such
effects
as
vibrato,
tremolo,
automatic
repetition
and
sample-and-hoid
The
actual
modulation
is
produced
by
a
low-frequency
oscillator
(LFO)
built
into
Taurus
II.
You
can
control
its
repetition
rate
with
the
RATE
knob
and
its
waveshape
with
the
3-position
SHAPE
switch.
You
may
then
select
to
apply
this
modulation
effect
to
either
the
two
oscillators
for
vibrato
or
the
filter
(VCF)
for
tremolo,
or
both,
•
Note:
The
amount
of
modulation
(amplitude)
is
controlled
by
the
MOD
WHEEL.
If
the
wheel
is
in
its
lowest
position,
no
modulation
effects
will
be
heard.
AUTO
TRIGGER
will
trigger
the
contour
generator
at
each
complete
cycle
of
the
LFO
when
turned
ON.
For
sample-and-hold
patterns,
select
the
RANDOM
(
"r[/r
)
shape,
turn
AUTO
TRIGGER
to
ON,
route
the
modulation
to
OSC
and/or
VCF
and
raise
the
MOD
WHEEL
fully.
