Applying an Effect by Touching Your Finger to the Pad (Time Trip Pad)

You can apply a variety of effects by touching your fingertip to the Time Trip pad located at the left side of the V-Synth
GT's panel.
What is the Time Trip Function?
One of the advantages of VariPhrase (p. 32) is that the playback location and speed of the wave can be changed
in real time. The Time Trip function takes advantage of this ability to manually control the playback location and
speed of the wave. In patches that use VariPhrase, switch the Time Trip Pad function to "TIME TRIP" to use this
function. While playing the keyboard, touch the Time Trip pad and the currently sounding wave will stop at the
current playback location. Then as you move your finger from that point in a circle, the wave playback will advance
in the direction of conventional playback (clockwise), or the reverse (counterclockwise). Unlike "scratching" on a
turntable, this lets you control the playback without affecting the pitch, so you can play the sound at the pitch you
specify from the keyboard.
You can use the D Beam controller to produce similar results.
The Time Trip pad will have an effect if PCM is selected as the oscillator (OSC1/OSC2) (p. 95) and the "Time
Trip Sw (Time Trip Switch)" (p. 99) is on.

[TIME TRIP]
[ASSIGNABLE]
46
Applies the Time Trip effect.
Applies the effect that is specified by each tone.
If [ASSIGNABLE] is on, the effect is applied via matrix control. This means that matrix control
settings must be made separately. Set the matrix control Source to "PAD-X" or "PAD-Y," and
specify the parameter to be controlled in Destination. For details on these settings, refer to
"Matrix Control" (p. 91).
By setting matrix control Source to "TRIP-R," you can apply the Time Trip effect and the matrix
control effect simultaneously. In this case, turn [TIME TRIP] on.
