1–5: Vector Control
Vector Synthesis lets you control Program and Effects
parameters by moving the Vector Joystick, by using the
programmable Vector Envelope, or by the combination
of the two.
What does Vector mean?
Modulation generally works by moving a single
control. like a slider, in a straight line. At one end of the
control, the modulation is at its minimum; at the other
end, it’s at its maximum.
Vector Synthesis is a little different. It works by moving
around a point on a two-dimensional plane, both left-
right and up-down.
Vector Point and X and Y axis values
You can think of this point as being positioned on two
different lines at once: a left-right line (the X axis), and
an up-down line (the Y axis).
In other words, instead of just having one value (like a
slider), each Vector point has two values: one for X,
and one for Y. See the graphic “Vector Point and X and
Y axis values” for an example.
In addition to moving the point directly with the
Vector Joystick, you can also use the Vector Envelope
to move its position automatically over time, as shown
below.

Vector Joystick and Vector Envelope
You can move the Vector point using the combination
of the Vector Joystick and the Vector Envelope. The two
work together, although you don’t necessary have to
use them both at the same time.
When the Vector Joystick is in its center position, the
Vector Envelope has complete control over the point’s
position. Likewise, when the Vector Envelope is in the
center, the Vector Joystick has complete control.
When the Vector Envelope is moving, the Vector
Joystick scales its effect. Regardless of the Envelope’s
position, the Vector Joystick can always move the
Vector point all the way to any of the extreme edges.
Tip:
to quickly reset the Vector Joystick to its center
value, hold down the front-panel Control Reset button
and move the joystick.
