Programming Basics
Clock Modulation
LFOs can also be perfectly synchronized with the clock at any of 25 note
divisions. This allows you to create very cool “synchro-sonic” effects that
work perfectly at any tempo. Choosing one of the note divisors in the LFO
rate screen selects the synced LFO function.
There are many possibilities for clock modulation and retrigger. For
example, you can create a repeating six segment curve of any shape by
triggering the Filter or Auxiliary Envelope generators with the clock. A few
other possibilities are listed below.
•
Turn different voice layers on and off using different clock divisors.
•
Switch between Auxiliary and Filter Envelope retriggering using a
slider or footswitch.
•
Retrigger LFOs or Envelopes using noise or other LFOs to create
random or semi random effects.
•
Alter the LFO waveform by modulating the rate of a triggered LFO.
•
Route multiple clocks with different divisors to the same destination
(such as pitch) to create complex patterns.
(Hint: Adjust the PatchCord
Amounts.)
Adding these two clocks together in equal amounts produces a stairstep waveform.
Adding multiple clocks with unequal amounts produces complex repeating patterns.
