SYNCHRONOUS TIMED EFFECT MODULATOR1260
Speed control
D Use the Speed x control to set the playback speed of the currently selected modulation curve.
The Speed can be set to 2, 1 or 0.5 times the main sequencer tempo, and are set individually for each of the three
modulation curves. The speeds are indicated by the Position Indicators’ advancement when the main sequencer is
running.
• In Speed x 1, the display covers 2 bars.
The vertical grid lines in the display represent 1/16th note.
• In Speed x 0.5, the display covers 4 bars.
The vertical grid lines in the display now represent 1/8th note.
• In Speed x 2, the display covers 1 bar.
The vertical grid lines in the display now represent 1/32th note.
Phase knob
D Set the phase of the currently selected modulation curve.
Range: 0-360 degrees.
The phase is changed individually for each curve type (waveform) used in the loop. The picture below shows the
same modulation curve with a Phase setting of 0 and ~180 degrees, respectively:
The same modulation curve at 0 degrees (top) and 180 degrees (bottom) Phase values.
As you can see in the picture above the first part of the curve, which is a sinewave with a 1/4th note rate is phase
shifted 180 degrees. The second part, which is a stepped line, is not changed at all. The third part of the curve,
which is a sawtooth wave with a 1/8th note rate is also phase shifted 180 degrees. However, since the third part
has a 1/8th note rate, the actual “distance” it has been moved is half as long as the 1/4th note rate sinewave in
the first part of the curve. This is because all waveform curves are phase shifted individually throughout the
modulation curve.
! Stepped Line and Linear Line curves are not affected by the Phase parameter - they stay fixed regardless of the
Phase value.
q If you want to “time shift” the entire modulation curves, including the Line curves, use the Master Offset
function described below.
