Dynamic Modulation sources

Pa3X is equipped with four powerfu l Effect Processors for the

internal MIDI tracks (Upper, Lower, Style, Song, Pads).

Dynamic Modulation sources

When the symbol is encoutered, a Dynamic Modulation

can be applied to the corresponding parameter. Dynamic Modu-

lation allows for realtime control of the effect. The following

table shows the available modulation sources.

Some notes on the Gate parameters follow.

Gate1, Gate1+Dmpr (Gate1+Damper)

The effect is at maximum during note-on, and will stop when all

keys are released. With Gate1 + Dmpr, the effect will remain at

maximum even after the keys are released, as long as the damper

(sustain) pedal is pressed.

Gate2, Gate2+Dmpr (Gate2+Damper)

This is essential ly the same as for Gate 1 or Gate 1 + Dmpr. How-

ever when Gate 2 or Gate 2 + Dmpr are used as a dynamic mod-

ulation source for the EG, a trigger will occur at each note-on.

(In the case of Gate 1 and Gate 1 + Dmpr, the trigger occurs only

for the first note-on.)
