HALF-RACK EFFECTS

6. Set the Curve type switch to “Bipolar” on the back of the second Matrix (Matrix 2).
7. Flip the rack around so that the front panels are showing, and make the following settings for the “Matrix 2”:
• Set the number of steps to “1”.
• Set the Curve/Keys switch to “Curve”.
8. Adjust the Matrix 2 curve for step 1 (the only step used) so that it is in the middle of the bipolar curve as the pic-
ture shows.
9. If you now activate Play from the transport, the pattern you programmed for Matrix 1 is played back. By care-
fully adjusting the Matrix 2 Curve step 1 up or down the Matrix 1 pattern is transposed in semitone steps.
By programming different values for the “pattern” played by Matrix 2 and saving them in different pattern locations,
you can use the Pattern selectors to transpose the Matrix 1 pattern to different keys!
Splitting CV
On the right half of the back panel you will find two split inputs “A” and “B”, each with four output connectors. The sig-
nal connected to a Split input will be output by all four corresponding outputs, where one is inverted.
Practical uses of splitting CV
There are many practical uses of splitting CV signals - here are a few examples:
D Connecting the CV Note and CV Gate outputs from a Matrix to Split Input A and B, allows you to connect the
Matrix to several instrument devices.
Simply route the CV and Gate outputs to the corresponding Sequencer Control CV/Gate inputs on the instrument
devices. Although this could also be done by copying the Matrix Pattern data to several sequencer tracks and rout-
ing the outputs to the desired devices, the advantage by using Split is if you are editing Matrix pattern data this will
be immediately be reflected in all the connected devices, without any copy/paste operations.
D Splitting modulation outputs from LFO’s, Curve CV data etc. allows you to apply modulation from one source
to several parameters.
By using the inverted output, you can create interesting modulation crossfades, where one parameter value rises
and another parameter value is lowered for example.
Two CV Split Inputs (A & B)
Each of the two Split inputs provide four
Split outputs. The lower right Split out-
puts will produce an inverted CV signal.
