Many presets use this routing with the modulation wheel controlling "how much" LFO modulation is applied. Another common effect, Tremolo, is created by controlling the volume of a sound with the LFO (LFO -> Volume). Mo'Phatt Operation Manual 89 Try combining the Pattern LFOs, or controlling the amount of one with another, or combining them with the clock divisors. Programming Basics Clock Modulation You might use the LFOs to add a slight bit of animation to the sound by routing the LFO to control the filter. For this effect, set the LFO "amount" low for a subtle effect. When a PatchCord amount is a negative value, the LFO shape is inverted. For example, inverting the sawtooth wave produces a wave that increases abruptly, then smoothly glides down. Negative Amount - + Sawtooth I nvert ed S a w t o o t h Clock Modulation You can use the Master Clock as a modulation source, to trigger the Filter or Auxiliary Envelope generators, trigger Sample Start, synchronize the LFOs, or directly as a square wave modulation source. The Clock source is available in eight divisions (octal whole note, quad whole note, double whole note, whole note, half note, quarter note, eighth note, sixteenth note). You can use the different rates separately or in conjunction to create complex "synchro-sonic" rhythm patterns. You can also use a MIDI Clock as the Master Clock to synchronize to an external MIDI device such as a drum machine or sequencer. (See "Base Tempo (Master Clock)" on page 36. ) Clocks are routed exactly like the other modulations sources using the PatchCords. The PatchCord Amount MUST be positive (+) for the clock to pass. By modulating the PatchCord Amount, you can route the divided clocks using real-time controllers or other modulation sources. When an LFO is triggered by a clock, the LFO wave resets to zero every time the clock wave goes low. If the LFO rate is close to the clock rate, the LFO virtually synchronizes with the clock. If the two rates are far apart, the waveform of the LFO will be mildly or radically altered. Envelopes are triggered on the positive going edge of the clock. LFOs are triggered on the negative going edge of the clock. The tempo of the master clock is set in the Arp/Beats menu. Triggered LFO LFO Wave Clock LFO Trigger causes the LFO to reset each time the clock waveform goes low. 90 E-MU Systems 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. LFO Synced to 1/4 Note Clock · Turn different voice layers on and off using different clock divisors. · Switch between Auxiliary and Filter Envelope retriggering using a slider or footswitch.
