What is the Modulation Matrix?

The modulation matrix is a function that lets you freely “rewire” signals like the LFO and envelope generator, to create a variety of sounds that normally can’t be achieved when connecting these components with the system default settings.
For the signal source, you can use internal signals like the LFO, as well as external MIDI signals like control change messages.
You can set one source and up to four output destinations for each slot, and you can set the modulation intensity (depth) for each destination.

Editing the Modulation Matrix

  1. Hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the [7] button.

    The MATRIX screen appears.

  2. Press the [ç] [æ] buttons to select the slot to edit.

    Depending on the model, you can use a maximum of two to four slots.

  3. Press the [ä] [å] buttons to select the source/destination to edit.
  4. Use the [1] knob to set the source/destination, and the [2] knob to set the modulation intensity for each destination.
