Lfo Section; The Modulation Matrix Area - Xils lab StiX User Manual

LFO Section

StiX LFO section includes two polyphonic LFOs that can be midi synced. Each LFO has the
same properties, and you can cumulate waveforms. You can specify if the LFO will be free
running, or reset on each note On event.
The 6 (Six) LFO waveforms are : Sine, Ramp Down & Up, Sawtooth, Square and Sample &
Hold
In this picture, LFO 1 is selected, with 3 waveforms. (Cumulative waveforms), and the Sync
Diode is activated, while the Trig Reset Diode is deactivated.
Rate (2) : Set the rate (speed) of the LFO.
Delay (2) : Set the Delay Time before the LFO will begin its action.( Note : Too long Delay times might make the LFO action not
being triggered, and it's action not being heard, depending on the Tempo of the track)
Waveforms (4) : You can select several waveforms simultaneously by clicking on their respective labels ( Highlighted = On ) If no
waveform is selected, then the LFO is disabled.
The Midi Sync Diode (Label Sync) (3) : Syncs the LFO to the Host Midi Clock. When this diode is ON the LFO values will be
displayed in musical values.
The LFO Trig Diode (Rst Label) (3) : When this diode is on the LFO will be triggered by each note on ( drum hit) and reset to the
beginning of the waveform.
Tip : Please note that you can use the LFOs parameters as modulation sources to control any parameter in the Mod Matrix area. If
no modulation for the LFOs are set in these pages, it can be a good idea not to select a lot of waveforms in the LFO module to save
CPU
Tip : When the Trig diode is activated you can use the LFO as an additional envelope

The Modulation Matrix Area

StiX offers different modulations options, some (the most usual) are
hardwired in the Modulation Matrix, to save you the time it would need to
connect the sources and destination in the Macro Modulation Matrix.
The Modulation Matrix allows you to modulate up to 5 fixed destination
parameters with the 3 following fixed sources : Lfo1, Lfo/Noise, Oscillator
2.
The destination parameters are :
1/ Pitch of Oscillator 1
2/ Pitch of Oscillator 2
3/ Oscillator 1 Waveform
4/ Oscillator 2 Waveform
5/ Filter Cut Off
When Oscillator 2 is the source, it can't control its own pitch, and its own
waveform.
