4.1 General Functioning of the Interface 29
for the control. Adjustment of the control is obtained by clicking on a selection or using the up and
down arrows and the Enter key of the computer keyboard.
The other controls represented by a display, such as the Tempo control of the Clock module,
are adjusted by click-holding on them and dragging the mouse upward or downward. Selection of
these controls is possible when the mouse is positioned on the display and a double pointing arrow
appears.
4.1.4 Inverting a Signal
The different modulation signals acting on the Oscillator, Filter, and Amp modules can easily be
inverted by clicking on the small button appearing on the upper right of the corresponding gain
knob. The signal is inverted when the button is on (LED on and value of 1).
4.1.5 Bypassing a Module
The different modules of the Ultra Analog can be turned on or off by clicking on the button appear-
ing on their upper right corner. A module is active when the button is in its on position or in other
words when it is lit and has a value of 1. Note that when a module is not activated, calculations
associated with this module are not performed, reducing CPU usage.
4.1.6 Resetting a Module and Copying Settings
The modules of Ultra Analog can be reset to their default value by clicking on the down pointing
triangle appearing in their upper right corner (left of the Bypass button) and selecting the Default
Settings command.
It is also possible to adjust the different controls of a module with the settings from a similar
module by clicking on this same down-pointing triangle and selecting the source module from
which the settings should be copied.
4.1.7 Modulation Signals
The modulation signals from the Keyboard, LFO and Env modules are controlled with knobs
labeled Kbd, LFO and Env respectively. These knobs are in fact gain knobs that are used to mul-
tiply the modulation signal by a certain factor. When these knobs are in their leftmost position,
the modulation signals are multiplied by zero which has the effect of turning off the modulation
source. Turning the knobs clockwise increases the gain factor and therefore the influence of the
corresponding modulation source.
