Chapter 7: Preset Programming 71
PRESET PROGRAMMING
MODULATION SOURCES
Morpheus uses three kinds of modulation sources.
• NOTE-ON MODULATION CONTROL
Values which are generated at the start of a note and do not change
during the note.
Keyboard Key
Which key is pressed.
Key Velocity
How fast the key is pressed.
Pitch Wheel, Control ABCD, Mono Pressure, Free-Run Func. Generator
These are variable controls which are measured only once at
Note-On time.
• REALTIME MODULATION CONTROL
Values which can be continuously changed during the entire duration
of the sound.
Pitch Wheel
A synthesizer pitch bend wheel.
Miscellaneous Controllers (A-B-C-D)
Any type of MIDI continuous controller data.
Keyboard Pressure (mono aftertouch)
Key Pressure applied after the key is initially pressed.
Polyphonic Key Pressure
Key Pressure from a controller capable of generating polyphonic
pressure data.
Low Frequency Oscillators (2 per preset)
Generate repeating waves.
Envelope Generators (3 per preset)
Generate a programmable “contour” which changes over time
when a key is pressed.
Function Generators (2 per preset)
Generate complex programmable shapes which begin when a key
is pressed.
Free-Running Function Generators (1 per hyperpreset)
Generate complex programmable shapes which begin whenever a
hyperpreset is selected.
