Step Modulator
Padshop features a polyphonic step modulator that you can use to create rhythmic control sequences.
The step modulator can be freely assigned in the modulation matrix.
- Steps
-
Sets the number of steps in the sequence. The maximum number of steps is 32.
- Slope
-
Determines whether the step modulator jumps from step to step or creates ramps between the steps.
-
No Slope produces hard steps.
-
Slope on Rising Edges creates ramps for rising edges only.
-
Slope on Falling Edges creates ramps for falling edges only.
-
Slope on All Edges creates ramps for all edges.
-
- Amount
-
If Slope is set to Slope on Rising Edges, Slope on Falling Edges, or Slope on All Edges, this parameter determines the time of the ramp between two steps. The higher the setting, the smoother the transitions between steps.
- Rate
-
If Sync is deactivated, this controls the speed at which the sequence is repeated.
- Sync Mode
-
If Sync is activated, you can synchronize the steps to the tempo of the host application.
-
Beat synchronizes the step modulator restart to the transport of the host application and aligns it to the beats of the project.
-
First restarts the step modulator when a note with the specified note value is triggered and no other note is held.
-
Each restarts the step modulator each time a note with the specified note value is triggered.
-
- Step
-
Allows you to select a specific step.
- Level
-
Shows the level of the selected step.
- Snap
-
If Snap is activated, the level of each step can only be adjusted in steps of 1/12th.
