3.1.1. The Modulation Matrix
The top section of the MiniFreak begins with the
Modulation Matrix
, which lets you connect
a variety of sources and destinations together in order to form
modulation routings, where
one part of the MiniFreak controls another.
There are seven rows of modulation sources, shown on the left and with a row for each.
There are up to thirteen modulation destinations in the seven columns, four hardwired and
up to nine assignable via the three
Assign
pages.
The Matrix encoder lets you browse through the modulation points. After clicking on it, it
allows you to edit the Amount. Once a modulation amount is set, the connection is made.
You'll clearly see if a modulation amount is set to anything other than zero since the LED for
that connection will be lit.

Modulation Matrix chapter [p.7]
3.1.2. Oscillators
These controls give you rapid access to the different properties of the two Digital Oscillators
(
Osc 1
and
Osc 2
).
•
Select
chooses whether the other controls affect Osc 1 or Osc 2.
•
Tune/Oct
selects the tuning in semitones (±48). Shift-clicking jumps by octaves.
Clicking the encoder lights the
Fine
LED and lets you fine-tune by
cents (100
cents = 1 semitone).
•
Type
selects the Oscillator Engine.
•
Wave
,
Timbre
, and
Shape
have different functions depending on the Oscillator
Type. These are shown on the Display.
•
Volume
adjusts the level of each Oscillator.
