The Modulation Matrix Function - Alesis DM Pro Reference Manual

T MODULATION MATRIX F
HE
SND1:MOD 1
Src: Velocity
This Function allows you create non-standard modulation routes or control signal
paths within the DM Pro for expressive and/or esoteric performance effects.
Although there are many dedicated, or "hardwired" modulation routes in the unit
(e.g., the Filter can always be modulated by the Velocity and Filter Envelope), the
programming architecture allows you to create two custom modulation routes per
Sound for maximum creative control over each Voice.
The DM Pro arranges its Modulation Source outputs and Modulation Destination
inputs into a "matrix" so that any selected Source can affect one of several
Destinations.
There are two general purpose Matrix Modulators which allow you to control two
Parameters from your choice of Modulation Sources. The Modulation Matrix
Function gives you the freedom to create routes outside of the standard modulation
paths contained in the other Drum Edit Mode Functions.
Tip:
Matrix, make sure that you are not making a connection that already exists in
the unit. Following is a list of routings are already "hardwired" into the DM
Pro:
