SWEEPER MODULATION EFFECT522
Rate
Here you set the LFO Rate.
Range: 0.050-50.00 Hz
D Click the SYNC button to sync the LFO Rate to the main sequencer tempo.
Range in Sync mode: 8 Bars to 1/64.
Rate Mod
If you like, you can modulate the LFO Rate from the Modulator signal (see “The Envelope Modulator” below). If the
LFO is in SYNC mode, modulating the Rate will force the LFO to switch between the sync divisions.
D Set the desired LFO Rate Modulation amount with the knob.
The Envelope Modulator
The Modulator section features an Envelope and an Audio Follower. You can use either the Envelope or the Audio
Follower (but not together).
The Envelope is taken straight from the Europa Shapeshifting Synthesizer, so if you are familiar with Europa you will
find your way around easily. The Envelope is extremely flexible, and you can draw your own custom modulation
shapes by clicking and drawing in the display area. There are also a number of preset shapes that you can use as
starting points (or use as is). If you use Loop mode, you could turn the envelope into an advanced LFO and design
your own wave shapes.
The Envelope can then be used for modulating the Frequency parameter of the Phaser/Flanger/Filter section, for
modulating the Volume, and for modulating the LFO Rate.
The envelope/loop playback starts as soon as there is audio present in Sweeper - or you can trigger playback
using the Audio Trig function (see “Audio Trig”) or a CV trig signal on the rear panel (see “Trig Envelope”) in-
stead.
