MonoMod page

This page contains Fusor’s additional monophonic modulation sources:
• 4 LFOs
• 4 envelope followers with hard-wired audio sources
These modulators are useful for extra modulation sources for synths or FX devices within Fusor. The FuseMod system
must be used on a destination device to modulate its parameters with MonoMod control signals.
The LFOs’ outputs are available as the LFO1-4 and LFO1-4 [+] FuseMod sources.
The LFO’s parameters can themselves be modulated – each LFO features 2 FuseMod slots.
See section 8:8 for more details on the FuseMod system.

LFO

The MonoMod LFO controls are almost identical to those of the standard DCAM LFO in Strobe, Amber and Cypher, but
with the following differences:
• They are always limited to monophonic operation
• They cannot be looped
• They do not feature any gate source options – they are always gated by Song Phase. In other words, they are free-

running LFOs which repeat identically each time you play through your host project.

Please see section 7:5 for details of the synths’ LFOs.

Envelope followers

The 4 MonoMod envelope followers track audio from various parts of Fusor in
order to generate envelope control signals that can be used in the FuseMod
system.
As with LFOs, suitable FuseMod modulation must be used on the destination
device to modulate its parameters with the envelope follower control signals.
The envelope follower outputs are available as the EnvFl1-4 FuseMod sources.
Attack, Release and Gain adjust the output envelope shape in relation to the

input. These controls cannot be modulated.

Visualizer scope

The context-sensitive visualizer scope shows the output shape of the MonoMod device under the mouse.
It operates in a very similar way to the synths’ scopes, which are described in section 6:6.
Note that the

Lock Scope function is not possible.

Animator page

Animator is an advanced 4-engine step-sequencer with arpeggiator functions.
See section 8:9 for details of how to use Animator.
