Z Target
AfterTouch
See Appendix A -
List of Modulation
Destinations
Lets you assign a modulation target to
respond to either 1) MIDI channel after-
touch values from an external MIDI con-
troller or 2) adding pressure to a pad. Can
scale the amount from 100 to 100 (can
only scale positive values for aftertouch).
Smoothing
ON
OFF
Lets you turn ON or OFF anti-aliasing for
modulations programmed into the GRID
when the sequencer is playing.
Wavetable
1-20
Lets you select 20 different wavetables to
use with the digital oscillators. Note that
D OSC1, D OSC1, and D OSC3 will all use
the same wavetable that is selected from
this menu option, though each digital os-
cillator with a wavetable can be modu-
lated independently.
Other Info
1. Saving and Loading Programs
Though the Medusa comes with 32 presets, you will no doubt want to tweak and save
some of your own programs, and the Medusa will let you save up to 128 programs.
Saving a program on the Medusa is very easy. When you have programmed the
sound and sequence you want, press the SAVE button, dial the Menu Button to select
either Bank A or Bank B, press the pad where you want it saved (any of the pads 1
through 64), and then press the SAVE button again. The seq OLED should say the pad
number and “saved”. Loading the program is as simple as hitting the LOAD button,
selecting the bank (A or B), and then hitting the pad number you want to load.)
2. Input and Output
The Medusa is equipped with both MIDI in/out/thru and USB ports, and it will respond
to note, mod wheel, and pitch bend MIDI data. It will also transmit MIDI note data
based on notes played on the pads, and transport start/stop messages correspond-
ing to Medusa’s sequencer PLAY button. There is also a 1/4 inch jack for the main
output (mono), a 1/4 inch jack for headphones, and a 1/4 inch jack for inputting an
external audio signal before the Medusa filter.
