ARTURIA – Matrix-12 V – USER MANUAL 64
To reset the modulation amount, not the source or destination, double-click one of
the following:
 the value field on the Modulation Page
 the related AMT knob in the bottom panel’s Mod field (pictured in the next
section)
 the SRC knob immediately below the value on the Modulation Page.
4.4.1.2 Clearing a mod
If you decide you want to remove the entire modulation route (source, destination
and amount), there’s a very quick way to do that:
 Find the mod in the bottom panel’s Mod display
 Click the CLEAR button on the right side of that mod, as pictured below.
The bottom panel Clear button
The SRC and DEST names will be replaced by three dashes, and the AMT value will
return to 0 (12:00).
4.4.1.3 Quantizing a mod
The Quantize feature can be used to force an otherwise smooth modulation
transition to happen in steps. Imagine: a sweeping LFO, an envelope, a Lever or any
other mod source can be made to move in discreet increments rather than “gliding”
through the values.
Here’s a cool example: When a mod to the VCO frequency or the filter cutoff is
quantized, the modulation output can be heard in semi-tones. You may find an
immediate use for that application by setting up a sort of “mini-sequence” that will
transpose itself when you play the keys. This is interactivity at its best, and one gift
among many from us to you.
To quantize a mod, select the Modulation Page and then toggle the button with the
letter 'Q' next to the clear button.
