This means that no modulation source is selected.
Mod Wheel CC 1
This is the standard Mod Wheel (unipolar MIDI CC#1).
Kaoss Bttn CC 12
This is the front-panel KAOSS button on the hardware modwave (unipolar MIDI CC#12).
Damper CC 64
This is the damper or sustain pedal (unipolar MIDI CC#64).
Pitch Bend
This is the Pitch Bend wheel (MIDI Pitch Bend). You can use this as a modulator, in addition to its hard-wired control
of pitch.
For the direct control of pitch, each Program has settings for Pitch Bend Range Up and Down. These are set by the
numbers next to the Pitch Bend wheel in the Keyboard section of the Mod Source panel. Up and Down can be set
independently, from -60 to +60 semitones.
Velocity
This is the note-on velocity, representing how hard the note is played on the keyboard.
Exponential Velocity
This is MIDI note-on velocity through an exponential curve. Low velocities won’t have very much effect, and the
differences between lower velocities won’t be very noticeable. On the other hand, high velocities produce increasingly
greater effects, and the differences between higher velocities will be more pronounced.
Release Velocity
This is the note-off velocity, representing how quickly the note is released from the keyboard.
Gate and Gate+Damper
Gate is triggered by a new note after all notes have been released, such as at the beginning of a phrase. Gate+Damper is
similar, except that it is triggered by a new note-on after all notes and the damper are released.
Note-On Trig and NDamp
Note-On Trig is similar to Gate, but it triggers with every new note-on, even in the middle of a legato phrase.
NDamp includes the damper pedal in the equation, as shown in the diagram below.
