Matrix Modulation sections

The PolyKB features four complete modulation sections allowing a very large sound palette.
The Modulation matrix is used to connect sources (or modulators ) to different synthesizer parameters,
like the volume, or the cut off, which are in this context called destinations, or targets. The sources are
then used to modify the target parameters value, with a certain amount.
In the PolyKB2 this amount is specified by a knob, while sources and destinations can be activated by
switches, or freely assigned using drop down menus, depending on the matrix you're working on.
The main switch matrix is hardwired and uses switches to connect predefined sources and targets.
The Drop Down matrixes offers freely assignable sources and destinations via drop down menus.
The VoiceXY matrix also offers assignable sources and destinations via drop down menus, but here the
settings are controlled by the dynamic polyphony allocation, independently for each voice
In all Modulation Matrixes knobs control the amount of modulation
We'll now see what the Main Switch Matrix (Hardwired ) has to offer
