37 Take 5 User’s Guide Modulation Examples
5. Use the
value
knob to set the amount to your preference. Higher
amount
settings cause the filter to open wider the farther up you move
the Mod Wheel. A negative amount setting will close the filter the
farther up you move the Mod Wheel.
Use
pressure
as the modulation source instead of the Mod Wheel slider in
the previous example to open the filter (positive
amount
) or close the filter (negative
amount
) with key pressure (aftertouch.
Other modulation ideas:
• To create the classic “attack pitch blip” effect in many synth brass sounds,
choose a good two-oscillator synth brass sound. Set
env
1 to
aux
and
env
2 to
filter
+
amp
. In the Mod Matrix route
env
1
osc 2 fine
. Set
env
1 to
Attack: 0, Decay: 9 o’Clock, Sustain: 0, and Release: 0 with an amount of
30.
• Route an LFO to
pan
to create an auto-panning effect. Panning width is
controlled by the modulation amount. Panning speed is controlled by
the LFO frequency. Add a second mod path to control the LFO speed
with the Mod wheel for a controllable rotating speaker spin-up/spin-
down effect. Add the rotating speaker effect as Effect 1 and set up a
third mod path to control
fx 1 mix
with the Mod wheel for even better
results.
• Route
velocity
to
overdrive
to distort a synth lead sound the harder
you play.
