14.4. Modulation sequence lanes
On top of Pitch, Note length and Velocity sequencing, the MiniFreak also offers four lanes of
Parameter sequencing. To access the modulation sequencing lanes, press the
Mods
button
next to
Record
.
14.4.1. Add a Modulation
To add a modulation make sure to :
• Enter Mods view by pressing the Mods button
• Enable step record, or real-time recording
• Move one of the Seq Mod-recordable parameters.
Once done the parameter in question will be added to the Mod destinations list.
If you have already 4 modulation destinations set in the patch adding a new modulation
destination will show the « Seq Mod Full » message.
14.4.2. Step-Record a Modulation
When the sequencer is stopped and the
Rec
button is lit, the unit is, as explained above in
step-record mode. Either there is an available Seq Mod Slot or you turn a parameter that
was already part of the four Modulations. From there while in step-record mode turn one of
Seq Mod recordable parameters.
This will create an offset to the given step, The range of the offset depends on the
parameter’s initial position. If the parameter is at x (between 0 and 1), the range is (-x, (1-x)).
The parameter’s initial position remains the reference point for as long as you are recording
some modulations onto steps. It is not modified by the modulation editing.
Example : knob at 0.5, step record on, turn the knob fully clockwise on step 1 then move to
step 2 turn the knob to the center. First step will have +50%, second step will have 0% in the
modulation.
The Knob catch-up mode doesn’t apply here, the offset between parameter initial position
and current physical knob position is stored in the step. Once Step-Recording is exited, the
parameter jumps back to the preset value.
