ROUTING AUDIO AND CV
37
Using CV and Gate
CV/Gate is used for modulating and triggering device parameters. Each sep-
arate Device chapter lists the available CV/Gate connections, the parame-
ters that can be modulated or be used for modulation outputs for the device.
Routing CV and Gate
There are not really any hard and fast “rules” applicable to CV/Gate routing.
A few points should mentioned:
➜ The specific “Sequencer Control” inputs present on the Subtractor
and NN-19 sampler devices are primarily intended for controlling
these devices as (monophonic) instruments from the Matrix Pattern
Sequencer.
If your intention is to use the Matrix CV/Gate outputs to create melodic
patterns using these Instrument devices, you should use the Sequencer
Control inputs.
✪ The Matrix Pattern Sequencer can be used in many other ways, be-
sides creating melodic patterns. For example you could use it to
modulate any CV controllable parameter, with the added advantage
of the modulation being synchronized to the tempo.
➜ Conversely, if you would like to apply Gate or CV modulation to
more than one voice, you should not use the Sequencer Control in-
puts, as these only function monophonically.
➜ Feel free to experiment: Use Gate signals to control parameter val-
ues and CV signals to trigger notes and envelopes, if you like.
See the chapter “Matrix Pattern Sequencer” for more tips about using
CV.
About the Voltage Trim Knobs
All CV inputs have an associated Trim knob. This is used to set the CV “sen-
sitivity” for the associated parameter. The further clockwise a voltage trim
knob is set, the more pronounced the modulation effect.
• Turned fully clockwise, the modulation range will be 100% of the pa-
rameters range (0-127 for most parameters).
• Turned fully anti-clockwise, no CV modulation will be applied.
