modulation tips?

[hatembr]

modulation makes your sound more alive!
you can make vibratos, open/close cutoff, morph a sound by changing its waveshapes, change the envelope's decay from linear to concave or convex.... all this fills your sounds with presence.

For vibratos it is quite simple, set lfo1 to modulat osc1+osc2 at a high rate
For cutoff sweeping, set lfo2 to modulate filter1+2
For envelope's decay, in the mod matrix set the source to the filter envelope and destination to filter decay. Positive amount makes a concave decay, a neg value makes a convex one (like moog's, this is also explained in the programming tutorial on access website)

another tip.... sync 2 saw, set osc2 semitone to +7 and osc2 to -12, using lfo1 (slow rate) modulate the osc2 pitch with a high amount, you'll get a kind of screaming sound......

etc etc etc.... just expreriment and you'll find your own preferences....
