ArcSyn User Manual: Mod Sources
Notes
- Modulation Matrix Sources A and B to be combined together and processed in different ways.
- Modulation sources can range between -1 and +1.
OFF
Zero.
LFO 1
LFO 2
LFO 3
LFO 4
LFO 5
LFO 6
LFO 7
LFO 8
LFOs 1-8. These can be positive, negative or both depending on the setting of the LFO OFFSET control.
ENV 1
ENV 2
ENV 3
ENV 4
Envelopes 1-4. Envelope 4 is pre-patched to the main output level of ArcSyn. Envelope outputs are positive only, from 0 to 1.
NOTE
MIDI note number. Positive only.
VELOCITY
MIDI note velocity. Positive only.
RELEASE
MIDI note release velocity. Very few MIDI keyboards generate release velocity information but it's here just in case yours does. It's also possible to edit release velocity information in the 'list' (or 'piano roll') editor in some sequencer/DAW programs. Positive only.
MODWHEEL
MIDI modulation wheel. Positive only. This is smoothed to prevent zipper noise.
PRESSURE
MIDI pressure sensitivity information, sometimes known as 'channel' pressure. Positive only.
A-TOUCH
MIDI aftertouch or poly pressure information. Not many keyboards generate this! Positive only.
PITCHBEND
MIDI pitch-bend wheel. This ranges from -1 to +1 and is unaffected by the MIDI pitch-bend +/- range setting.
RANDOM
A random level between 0 and +1 is generated every time ArcSyn receives a MIDI note-on event.
MOD 1
MOD 2
MOD 3
MOD 4
MOD 5
MOD 6
MOD 7
MOD 8
MOD 9
MOD 10
MOD 11
MOD 12
MOD 13
MOD 14
MOD 15
MOD 16
The outputs of modulation matrix slots 1-16 are also available as modulation sources. They are taken before the modulation AMOUNT sliders so you don't need to adjust the slider levels to use them.
NBR NOTES
A source which consists of a level from 0 to +1 which depends on how many voices are currently playing. If all 32 voices are playing, the level is +1.
CONSTANT
A constant level of +1. Useful to control the level of other modulation sources or to use as an input to a modifier.
