Other modulation ideas:
• To create the “attack pitch blip” effect in classic synth brass sounds,
dial up a good two-oscillator synth brass sound, then route Envelope 3
to osc2 freq and set Envelope 3 to Attack: 0, Decay: 30, Sustain: 0, and
Release: 0 with an amount of 18.
• Route an LFO to pan to create an auto-panning effect. Panning width is
controlled by the modulation amount. Panning speed is controlled by
the LFO frequency. Add a second mod path to control the LFO speed
with the Mod Wheel for a faux rotating speaker spin-up/spin-down
effect. Enable the chorus effect and set up a third mod path to control
fx mix with the mod wheel for even better results.
• Route velocity to lter drive to subtly overdrive the lter the harder
you play.
Effects
You can add two digital effects to any Prophet X program. In stacked or split
sounds, each layer can have its own independent effects.
Not all sounds need effects to make them interesting, but adding a touch
of reverb or delay can add a sense depth, just as adding chorus, anging,
or phasing can add movement.
Effects settings are saved individually with each program. If you enable
the
sync button, time-based effects such as the delays can be synchronized
to the arpeggiator, sequencer, or MIDI clock for repeats that occur on the
beat.
