Two controls modify the amount of modulation sent to the destination: the selected controller (set with the
CONTROLLER
knob) and the
AMOUNT
control. When the selected controller is a performance control
such as the Mod Wheel or Key Velocity, the modulation can be selectively varied from 0 to 100%. When
the selected controller is an envelope, the modulation varies according to the envelope parameters. In both
cases, the
AMOUNT
control always sets the maximum amount of modulation.
To try out a simple modulation effect, make the following settings:
On the LFO:
- Set the
RATE
control to about 6 Hz
- Set the
WAVE
control to the Triangle wave
On Mod Bus 1:
- Set the
SOURCE
control to ‘LFO’
- Set the
DESTINATION
control to ‘PITCH’
- Set the
CONTROLLER
selector to ‘MOD WHEEL’
- Set the
AMOUNT
control to 2
These settings allow the Mod Wheel performance control to be used to fade in the modulation, which
should sound something like vibrato. This is a simple use of a Mod Bus. The fl exibility of the two Modula-
tion Busses offer a wealth of modulation possibilities which make the Voyager OS an incredible sound
design tool.
Modulation Bus Section Controls:
Source:
The
SOURCE
control selects the source of the modulation. There are six selections available:
- LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator)
- OSC 1 (Oscillator 1)
- OSC 2 (Oscillator 2)
- OSC 3 (Oscillator 3)
- NOISE
- ON/MOD2: If nothing is plugged into the MOD2 jack, this selection is ON
Destination:
The
DESTINATION
control selects the destination of the modulation. The modulation destination is cho-
sen in the same manner as the source. The modulation destination selections are:
- PITCH (the pitch of all three oscillators)
- OSC2 (the pitch of Oscillator 2 only)
- OSC3 (the pitch of Oscillator 3 only)
- FILTER (the Cutoff Frequency of the fi lter)
- WAVE (the waveforms of all 3 oscillators)
- LFO (the Low Frequency Oscillator)
