Tracking Modulators

These are special kind of modulators tracking pitch or cutoff frequency related sources.
If these modulators are used to modulate pitch or cutoff frequency related parameters like
'cut off' or 'formant shift' the modulation amount characteristic changes. A modulation
amount of 100 results in a 'linked' behavior. That means that an octave jump in the modula­
tion source results in an octave jump at the modulated parameter.
KEY TRACK: Tracks the keys of the incoming MIDI notes. Including the glide and the
▪
manual set pitch.
PITCH TRACK: Like KEY TRACK but inclusive pitch modulation. The main reason to have
▪
'pitch track' extra to 'key track' is that the formant oscillator type needs 'pitch track' in
order to get the original waveform regardless of pitch modulation.
FILTER 1 TRACK: Tracks the cutoff of filter 1. It includes modulation. The main purpose is
▪
to link cutoff parameters in filter 2 or in the oscillators to the cutoff of filter 1 but can
be used to modulate other parameters too. If mod amount is set to max the cutoff fre­
quencies always have the same distance.
