MODIFIERS

Modifier

Out 2 Phase
An LFO phase change causes a small delay in the second
waveform starting point. This means that out 1 and 2 start the
current waveform at two different points. Example: If Out 2
Phase is set to 180 degrees, Out 1 and 2 will be exactly opposite.

LFO PHASE

Default
Sets the default state that the LFO will be in when recalled.
When set to “Stopped”, the LFO will be stopped until triggered
via the Modifier Matrix.
When set to “Running” the LFO will continue to run until
retriggered via the Modifier Matrix.
Trig
Sets the action carried out when the LFO is triggered via the
Modifier Matrix. To change the state of the LFO the control
value must come from the opposite state. Example: If the LFO is
running and you want to stop it via the Trig input, the control
value must be above 55% to perform a valid Stop. (Value below
45%).
Stop/Cont -Will Stop the LFO when the control value is below

45%, and Continue LFO playback when the control
value is above 55%.

Stop/Rest - Will Stop the LFO when the control value is below

45%, and Restart LFO playback when the control
value is above 55%.

Restart - Will restart the LFO when the control value is above

55%.

Freeform

The Freeform modifier is a small sequencer that can output a
series of up to 32 samples of control values over a period of time.
The values of the samples can be edited individually and
playback speed can be adjusted according to the global tempo.
The parameters available in the Modifier Matrix are marked with
an asterisk*.

change

Speed*
Sets the playback speed of the Freeform modifier. The defined
number of samples will be played back over the amout of time
set by the Speed parameter. E.g. if Speed is set to 1Hz the
defined number of samples will be played back once every
second.
Tempo
Sets the Freeforms relationship to the global tempo. The defined
number of samples will played back during the value set by
Tempo. Example: If Freeform is set to 8 samples and Tempo is
set to 4/1 (4 bars) you will hear two samples in each bar.
Depth*
Sets the maximum value of Freeform. This means that all
samples can be scaled down using this parameter.
Loop mode
The loop mode determines how or whether Freeform is looping.
Off -

Will cause Freeform to playback the samples once
and then stop.

FWD -

Will make Freeform loop forward continuously.

BWD -

Will make Freeform loop backward continuously.

Switch - Will make Freeform switch between forward and

backward looping, starting with forward.

Gliding
Sets whether the Freeform jumps from one sample value to
another or glides to make a smoother transition between the
samples.
Default
Sets the default state that Freeform will be in when recalled.
When set to “Stopped”, Freeform will stay stopped until
triggered via the Modifier Matrix.
When set to “Running” Freeform will continue to run until
retriggered via the Modifier Matrix.
Trig (Start/Stop)*
Sets the action carried out when Freeform is triggered via the
Modifier Matrix. To change the playback state of the Freeform
the control value must come from the opposite state. Example: If
Freeform is running and you want to stop it via the Trig input,
the control value must be above 55% to perform a valid Stop.
(Value below 45%).
Stop/Cont -Will Stop Freeform playback when the control value

is below 45%, and Continue Freeform playback when
the control value is above 55%.

Stop/Rest - Will Stop Freeform playbackwhen the control value

is below 45%, and Restart Freeform playback when
the control value is above 55%.
