Applications for Matrix Control

Controlling the TMT with the LFO
and Changing the Tone's Timing
When TMT (Tone Mix Table) is selected as the Matrix Control
destination, you can use the Control Source controller to change the
time at which Tones in a Patch are played.
Here is an example of a Patch using LFO1 as a Control Source. The
time at which the Tone plays is based on LFO1's amplitude value.
1. Select "PE:043 Morph Pad" on the PATCH PLAY screen.
2. Set TMT V-Rng Lower and Upper (PATCH:COMMON screen,
p. 41) for Tones 1 and 2 as follows.
L :
tone = 1 1 :
tone = 2 65 :
3. Set TMT V-Rng L.Fade and U.Fade to 10 for Tones 1 and 2.
This makes the Tones fade in and out smoothly outside their
velocity ranges.
4. Set TMT Vel Control to OFF.
This setting disables the V-Rng settings made in Step 2 and
causes the two Tones to sound simultaneously, regardless of the
velocity — the force with which keys are played — received
from your MIDI keyboard or sequencer.
5. Set TMT Control Sw (PATCH:CONTROL screen, p. 52) to ON.
This setting allows the TMT to be controlled by the Matrix
Control Controller. The following chart shows all the
relationships between the TMT Velocity Control and TMT Ctrl
Sw.
(1)
TMT Vel Control ON
TMT Control Sw OFF
(1)(3): The Velocity Control settings are enabled, and the two Tones
are switched on or off according to the velocity data received from
the MIDI keyboard or sequencer.
(2): The Velocity Control settings and TMT control via Matrix
Control are disabled, and the two Tones play simultaneously,
regardless of the velocity data received from the MIDI keyboard or
sequencer.
(4): TMT Matrix Control is enabled, and the timing of the Tones
changes according to the Control Source controller data.
* The TMT Vel Control settings are given priority when both TMT Vel
Control and TMT Control Sw are set to ON.
6. Choose LFO1 as the Ctrl 1 Src (PATCH:CONTROL screen, p.
52).
7. Set Ctl1 Dest1 to TMT, Ctl1 Sens1 to +63, and Ctl1 Switch1
for TONE 1 and 2 to ON.
8. Set the LFO1 Form and Rate (PATCH:LFO screen) for each
of the Tones as shown below.
TONE 1 TONE 2
Form: SIN SIN
Rate: 64 127
118
U
64
127
(2) (3) (4)
OFF ON OFF
OFF ON ON
9. Choose the Number for Tones 1 and 2 (PATCH:WAVE
screen, p. 44).
10.Press [EXIT] to return to the PATCH PLAY screen.
Other possible applications include synchronizing the Control
Source LFO rate to the tempo, assigning Modulation and other
parameters to the Control Source, and changing the Tone in
realtime from a MIDI keyboard or other such device.
