Pitch and Mod Wheels
Modulation Wheel
The Mod wheel controls the amount of modulation applied to any destina-
tions chosen in the
low
-
frequency
oscillator
section. This allows you to
“perform” LFO modulation in real time by moving the Mod wheel. This is a
great way to add expressiveness to a sound or performance.
To choose a modulation destination for the Mod wheel:
1. In the
low
-
frequency
oscillator
section, choose a modulation desti-
nation as well as a
shape
and
frequency
for the LFO. (See “Low
Frequency Oscillators” on page 31 for more details.)
2. To apply modulation only when using the Mod wheel, set the
initial
amt
knob to zero. (Turing this knob up will apply LFO modulation
continuously — not just when the Mod wheel is used.)
Many programs use the Mod wheel to add vibrato. In this case, Freq 1 and
Freq 2 are enabled as modulation destinations in the
low
-
frequency
oscillator
section. This adds vibrato when you push the mod wheel forward. Set the
initial
amt
knob to zero to apply vibrato only when using the Mod wheel.
