NOTES

The three key parameters in applying random modulation start with the
amount of randomisation. This is a parameter specific setting and when a
value is assigned then randomisation is applied. The second parameter is
to ability to shift the phase of the random modulation forward or back.
These are local parameters applied to each parameter’s modulation
sequence. The third option is a global value which sets the overall evolution
of the random sequence, generating the random step values and range.

Think of the randomisation control as evolving the values of the modulation
sequence, as well as changing multiple related algorithms simultaneously,

▌ ADJUSTING THE RANDOM PROBABILITY

1. Select the pattern and track.

2. To view the the probability amount, Hold or double tap (RANDOM).

3. Applying randomisation.

Keep holding (RANDOM) + Press [VB1] - [VB16]. The option
adjusts the amount 0-100%. Note, double tap (RANDOM) to keep
this option selected and then press [VBx] to change the setting.
Fastest and will visualise the active state.

Turn (RANDOM). The option adjusts the amount 0-100%.

Hold & Turn (RANDOM). The option adjusts the amount 0-100%.
Slower but will visualise the active state.

4. The 0% value i.e. all value buttons lit BLUE GREY

will loop the

random sequence. A value of 100%, all value buttons lit PINK

will

always apply randomisation.

Random has a nominal 0-100% range but is not simply a linear value change. This

sets the cyclic value shape of the random sequence as it evolves and is regenerated
