Part 6: Editing Effects

MOD1 DESTINATION

Range of Settings: (see list below) Page 2

This is where you select exactly what Effect parameter your modulation source is going to modulate. It’s a big list. Not all of these are available in all configurations, but the possible destinations are:

•Pitch Speed

•Pitch Depth

•Pitch Level

•Pitch Balance

•Delay Time

•Delay Feedback

•Delay Level

•Reverb Balance

•Reverb Input

•Reverb Decay

•Reverb Low Decay

•Reverb High Decay

•Reverb Diffusion

•Reverb Level

•Overdrive Threshold

•Overdrive Bright

•Overdrive Balance

•Overdrive Level

•Lezlie Balance

•Lezlie Level

•Lezlie Speed

•Lezlie Motor

If the selected Configuration has a particular effect on more than one Send, certain Mod Destination parameters will be listed more than once. An example: In Config. #1 there is a Delay on each Send, so the Delay Time parameter in this subfunction will appear four times — one for each Send. They are identified by number, like so: D1 Time, D2 Time, D3 Time, and D4 Time.

In the case of Pitch, which offers a variety of effect types, different parameters will be available (or unavailable) depending on the effect type chosen.

Note: if the Resonator or Detune effects are chosen as the Pitch Effect, you won’t see their parameters listed as Mod destinations. But they’re still available to you. For example, if you’ve chosen Resonator on Send 1 and you want to be able to modulate its first parameter (Resonator Tune), choose P1 Speed as your destination (that’s the first parameter you can modulate in a Chorus). The Resonator Decay parameter is its second parameter, so to modulate it you would choose P1 Depth (the second P1 parameter) as the destination. Just remember: the Resonator is a Pitch effect, just like chorusing, flanging, and detuning.
