Velocity Sensitivity Section

Here, you can set how much velocity affects various sound parameters:

Pitch, Filter Envelope Attack (Atk), Amplifier (Amp) and Panning (Pan).

When you hit a pad softly, only minimal modulation is applied. When you

hit it harder, the modulation amount also gets stronger depending on the

setting of the corresponding dial.

LFO Section

A low-frequency oscillator (LFO) generates a periodic waveform with an

adjustable frequency and shape which can be used for modulation

purposes.

Wave sets the LFO waveform. Click the drop-down menu and select

one of the following:

• Triangle (best suited for smooth modulations)

• Sine (best suited for smooth modulations)

• Square (interesting results with hard-panning modulations)

• Saw (can generate interesting filter or volume changes)

• Saw Down (can generate interesting filter or volume changes)

• Noise (generates random values and glides)

• S&H (samples a random value and holds it until the next value is generated)

Rate determines the LFO frequency when Sync is on. At lower values, it might take some time for the

LFO to complete a cycle, while higher values will come closer to audible range.

Sync will synchronize the LFO to the tempo, based on the rate selected in the drop-down menu. When

None is selected, Sync is off.

The LFO modulation Destinations determine the amount of effect of the LFO has on Pitch, Filter Cutoff

frequency (Filter), Volume (Amp) and Panning (Pan).
