If it is synchronized with an external sequencer like Cubase or Logic Audio for example, use the
“Quantization” (“Q”) parameter, situated next to the “sync” button in the same section. Choose one of the
tempo divisions to set the speed to your likings.
To add additional punch to the sequence, place accentuations on certain notes (“Accent”
- envelopes “Attack and Decay” are effective on the cutoff frequency of the VCF):
 Click on the “Accent” button and apply it to the steps you want to accentuate.
 Set the intensity of this modulation with the “Level” knob.
 Set the attack time “A” and decay time “D” of the envelope to your convenience
The accent settings
 There is also the option to add alternative quantization («SWING») to the sequence.
This quantization can be useful for the composition of a piece of «house music», for
example.
4.5.2 Create progressive modulations with the GALAXY unit
Galaxy allows creating very complex modulations thanks to the interaction of 3 LFOs. The
first two LFOs allow inter-modulation with a different parameter on the X and Y axes.
They are represented on the graphical interface of the unit. A third LFO allows modifying
the alpha angle between the 2 X and Y axes.
The «GALAXY» module
 Click on the “MODULATIONS” tab then on the “GALAXY” tab to show the interface.
