The modulation modules

Without the action of modulation modules, the sound that you obtain is uniform, without life and
without any end! The oscillator delivers a sound signal (the audio output of a waveform) of a fixed
pitch in a continuous manner. To get a playable and pleasant sound, you have to add some real time
or cyclic modulations on your audio modules like envelopes, LFOs or joystick.

Keyboard following

The Keyboard following module is one of most important for use with a keyboard. This module first
scales the input signal according to the keyboard's basic range setting. Then it quantizes the scaled
input signal to the closest exact semitone which fits in the semitone scale (following the well
tempered scale) set by the notes control on the keyboard.
Origin supports up to four keyboard following inputs.
Each of the keyboard follows can generate a trigger signal. Two displays allow the choice of a low
and high note. When the keyboard detects a note between these 2 limits, the trigger signal is active
as long as the note remains active.
When the note is outside of the limits, the trigger signal remains inactive. If the notes selected for
the upper and lower limits are set such that the lower note is higher than the upper, then the note
detected by the keyboard must be outside of the limits to activate the trigger signal.
Each possessing has a slope setting with the "Slope" knob, an Axis note can be chosen in the "Axis"
display.
