Adding Aftertouch
To assign the slider to a modulation destination:
1. On the front panel modulation section, press and hold the source button.
2. Touch the slider. The mod matrix appears in the display and slider is
assigned to an available modulation slot.
3. Turn Soft Knob 4 (destination) to choose a modulation destination.
4. Turn Soft Knob 3 (amount) to choose the maximum amount of modu-
lation applied when you move your nger to the top range of the slider.
5. To route the slider to more destinations, turn Soft Knob 1 (edit mod #)
to nd an open modulation slot and choose slider.
6. Repeat steps 3-4.
Adding Aftertouch
Aftertouch is a performance feature that allows you to add modulation to
a sound by applying additional pressure to a key after the key is already
down. The greater the pressure applied, the more modulation is applied.
The Pro 3 provides monophonic (or “channel”) aftertouch, which means
that applying pressure to any key within a paraphonic chord will apply
modulation to all notes currently held.
The modulation section lets you choose the amount of modulation
applied using aftertouch and also which parameters are modulated (oscil-
lator frequency, lter frequency, etc.). You can set either a positive or
negative amount.
For example, if you select the lter cutoff as modulation destination
(cutoff), set a positive amount of pressure, then press a key harder, the
lter cutoff frequency will increase, making the lter open wider and the
sound become brighter.
Conversely, if you select the lter frequency as destination, set a
negative amount of pressure, then press a key harder, the lter cutoff
frequency will be lowered, making the lter close more and the sound
become more muted.
