Alesis QS7.1, QS8.1 manual Tracking Input, Tracking Points 0 10 Pages

Editing Programs: Part 8

TIP: The Tracking Generator can be used to turn a variable control, such as the Mod Wheel or velocity, into a switch by setting all of the points to 0 except for point 10. Only near the maximum input will anything other than 0 come out of the Tracking generator. You can patch the Mod Wheel somewhere else in addition to the Tracking Generator, giving you gradual control of one function with the full range of the Mod Wheel, while switching on a second function only at the top of the wheel.

Tracking Input Page 1

Select the input of the Tracking Generator from the following sources:

•	Note Number	•	Mod Wheel	•	Pedal 2	•	Filter Envelope
•	Velocity	•	Pitch Wheel	•	Pitch LFO	•	Amp Envelope
•	Release Velocity •		MIDI Volume	•	Filter LFO	•	Random
•	Aftertouch	•	Sustain Pedal	•	Amp LFO	•	Trig Rate
•	Poly Pressure	•	Pedal 1	•	Pitch Envelope	•	Controllers A–D

For detailed descriptions of each of these sources, see the section “Modulation Source” in the Mod section on pages 140-141.

Tracking Points 0 – 10 (00–100) Pages 2–12

The remaining pages of the TRACK function control the levels of points 0–10. Select the various Points with the [PAGE] buttons, and change the values in the usual ways. A higher number increases the impact that Point will have on whatever the Mod destination is.

So now that you understand the Tracking Generator a little better, why not try setting up your own velocity curve? Use the TIP at the bottom of the Velocity Curve section as your guide (see page 126).
