BIPOLAR – in this mode when the modulation signal is at
its mid-way value there is zero modulation effect.
UNIPOLAR – in this mode when the modulation signal is at
zero the modulation effect is also zero.

[INFO] The page overview icon for the mod-
ulator will change depending whether the modula-
tor is in unipolar or bipolar mode.
Press
[BUTTON-UP]
and
[BUTTON-DOWN]
simultaneously to al-
ways jump to the first option.
Press
[BUTTON-LEFT]
or
[BUTTON-RIGHT]
again, or press
[BUTTON-
LEFT]
and
[BUTTON-RIGHT]
simultaneously to return to the
main parameter page display.
On the main parameter page the amount of secondary mod-
ulation is shown as a small vertical bar on the right-hand
side (next to the bar for the the primary destination). The
secondary modulation destination is shown as a number
as listed above.
Details of each modulation source is given in the subsec-
tions below.
[TIP] On the MASTER PITCH parameter page
set a secondary destination of LFO amount (and
set an appropriate secondary level amount) for a
global modulation source which is assigned to the
MIDI modulation wheel. Now the MIDI modulation
wheel will control the depth of vibrato effect of
the LFO.
[TIP] On the OUTPUT parameter page set a
secondary destination of EG TIME and a negative
secondary level amount for the note modulation
source. Set the output page to use the unique EG.
Now higher pitch notes will have an EG envelope
which processes faster such as is common for real-
world stringed instruments.
Note pitch modulation
On row 2 of the display, starting at the left-hand side is
shown the note modulation setting, indicated by the NOTE
symbol. This controls how much the MIDI note-on signals
or CV pitch voltage affect the page’s destination (which in
the example shown is the LPF-1 cut-off frequency) or how
note-on signals affect other modulations for this page (if
the secondary destination is used).
The higher the incoming MIDI note-on pitch or CV pitch
voltage the higher the modulation signal.
i
[INFO] The note pitch modulation signal is
derived from the ’latest’ (i.e. most recent) note
currently being played, including the effects of
portamento, but excluding pitch-bend signals.
Velocity modulation
To the right of the note modulation setting is shown the
velocity modulation setting indicated by the VELOCITY/AC-
CENT symbol. This section controls how note velocity sig-
nals affect the page’s destination and levels or setttings
of other modulators for this page, in exactly the same way
as for the note-on modulation.
The velocity is the source of this modulation signal. The
harder the key is struck (on a touch sensitive MIDI keyboard)
the higher this signal.
Modulation sources M1, M2, M3 and M4
Each of these separate modulation sources can be assigned
to various MIDI controls e.g. modulation wheel, pitch bend
