Due to a firmware bug the modulation depth for the following parameters can only be
set in the positive half over Midi-SysEx:
•
OSC DETUNE
•
DCO1 LFO1 AMT
•
DCO2 LFO2 PWM AMT
•
ENV1 VCF AMT
•
ENV3 VCF FM AMT
Therefore these parameters are unipolar when using the 1006R-edition in Matrix6
Mode (0 to +63 instead of -63 to +63). Setting negative modulations would be possible
with some tricks but it would cause much more stuttering of the Matrix-6. Remember
you can always set the parameter value using the number pad on the Matrix-6's
frontpanel.
Some parameters seem to cause heavy work inside of the Matrix-synths. Fiddling the
pots with these parameters easily can cause your Matrix to seem dead for over a
second. We slowed down these parameters in the Synth Controller intentionally by
sending it to the synth in larger time delays. The advantage is, your matrix has less
blackouts and responds much better to further changes or incoming notes. Of course
there is a downside: you have to turn these knobs slower to get the desired changes
because the knob is not so often updated (or sent to the synth).
We talk about the following parameters:
•
DCO1 LFO1 AMT
•
DCO2 LFO2 PWM AMT
•
ENV1 VCF AMT (to bad ...)
•
ENV3 VCF FM AMT
