Modulation
The Modal 008R has extremely comprehensive and flexible modulation capabilities. A total of
11 modulation sources are available to modulate every variable parameter on the synth by its
own unique depth at a super smooth sample rate of 10 kHz.
Sources:
The available sources are LFO1, LFO2, Velocity, Aftertouch, Note (Keytracking), the
four joystick axes (X+ right, X- left, Y+ up and Y- down), External Input (Expression pedal
socket on the rear) and FEG (Filter Envelope).
Assign Modulation
Assigning modulation is very simple and there are three easy ways to do it:
Front Panel:
Press the Assign button for the source you want to assign the modulation to and
the modulation matrix page for that source is shown. This page allows you to scroll through
all possible destinations and visualise or edit what depths have been assigned for that source..
The assign buttons are all located on the right. The only exception is the Recall button, that
switches the first 8 buttons to Quick Recall mode.
Matrix:
On the LCD parameters screen, 3rd ‘menu button’ (C), there is a Modulation Matrix
page (option 10). This displays a page showing all sources of modulation, as well as their
destinations and depths. More information on this page can be found in the next section,
‘Modulation Matrix’.
Per Page:
On the LCD if any parameters on a page are available to be modulated the page
icon (top left) is highlighted in white. Selecting this icon will allow you to select a source of
modulation then allow you to assign a parameter to this source of modulation. This is also the
page that is shown when using the front panel to assign modulation.
TIP: A quick and easy way to see if a parameter has any modulation active is to navigate to the
page where the parameter is located. Then by selecting the page icon, top left, you can scroll
through the available sources and the values of that page will update to show the modulation
depths for the selected source.
