MODULATION MASTERY

01

Start with simple 1-to-1 connections before building complex routing webs

02

Use visual meters to monitor modulation activity and prevent overmodulation

03

Exponential curves work best for filter and amplitude modulation

04

Cross-modulate LFO rates and depths for organic, evolving movement

05

Use quantized routing for rhythmic and melodic step sequences

06

Audio-rate modulation creates extreme timbral changes and distortion

07

Save matrix presets for different song sections or performance setups

08

Use slew limiting to smooth abrupt modulation changes

09

Ring modulation between sources creates metallic and bell-like tones

10

Logic operations enable complex rhythmic gating and trigger patterns

11

Use chaos sources for unpredictable but musically interesting modulation

12

Monitor CPU usage - complex matrices can be processor-intensive
