is useful for creating modulation that varies over time according to the
shape of the envelope. Routing an envelope to an oscillator’s frequency,
for example, causes the oscillator’s pitch to rise and fall according to the
contour of the envelope.
As with all of the Prophet Rev2’s envelopes, there are controls for modulat-
ing the envelope amount using keyboard velocity. The Auxiliary Envelope
can be routed to any of the modulation destinations in the mod matrix. In
addition, the Auxiliary Envelope can repeat (loop) using the
env

function in the

menu. This is useful for cyclical 4-stage modulation.
Actually, any of the Prophet Rev2’s envelopes can be routed to any destination (or
multiple destinations) using the modulation matrix. See “Modulation” on page 32 for more
information.

The Auxiliary Envelope
Destination: Various
—Selects a modulation destination for the Auxiliary
Envelope. See “Modulation Destinations” on page 70 for a list of possible
destinations.
Env Amount: -127...127
—Sets the amount of modulation from the envelope
to the chosen destination. The modulation amount can be positive or negative,
allowing for inverted envelope control.
Velocity: 0...127
—This enables keyboard velocity to modulate the Enve-
lope Amount. It doesn’t enable keyboard velocity to directly control the
modulation. To do this, see the user tip that follows
