The V-Synth’s Matrix Control is used for routing any sources of MIDI data to a wide
range of possible destinations. Available sources include the V-Synth’s left-hand
controls, all standard MIDI continuous controllers (including Pitchbend and Modulation)
as well as Aftertouch, Velocity and Key Follow.
Let’s add a bit more depth to the “Simplicity” patch you made early on in this tutorial - it
should be number 300. Touch Common , select the Matrix Ctrl tab and the
Control 1/2 tab if necessary . Pushing the Bender (CC01) has already been used for
adding vibrato, but here is a little trick which can always be used to make this more
expressive: Touch the Control 1 / Destination 2 List pad and select 018:OSC1-
LFO-RATE. Touch OK and set the sensitivity (Sens) to +2 . Pushing the Bender now
increases the vibrato rate as well as its depth.

Highlight the source of Control 2 (at the moment this reads +PAD-Y) and change it to
AFT (aftertouch) by pressing the DEC/- button twice .
Select 044:CSM1-PRM1 (COSM1-Parameter1) from the upper list and change the
corresponding sensitivity to +20 . Pressing harder on the keyboard now opens the
filter a little.

To make filter Cutoff velocity sensitive, you don’t really need to use the Matrix: Simply
go to COSM1 / Cutoff page and change the Velocity Curve to 1 .
