Arp Transpose

The Transpose value of each step in the Arpeggiator (if
the Arpeggiator is switched On, Bipolar).

Arp Length

The Length value of each step in the Arpeggiator (if the

Arpeggiator is switched On, Unipolar).

LFO 1 … LFO 5

The respective LFO. While a LFO is generally bipolar,
it can be switched to certain operation modes (see

LFO section for details) so it appears as a unipolar
source.

Nnn Envelope

All Envelopes of Spectral are available as modulation

source. This includes the Oscillator, Filter, the three
dedicated Modulation envelopes (Mod Envelope) and

the Main Envelope.
Modulation Envelopes are not pre-assigned a

destination and only function via the Mod Matrix. All
envelopes are unipolar.

Glide Curve

The Glide (sometimes called portamento) Envelope

(unipolar). Keep in mind that this “Envelope” has a
different intensity, depending on the successive notes.

So if you play for example a C3 and then a D3 the
Glide Envelope only has a very small deviation as the

notes are so close. Also, when Glide is set to Constant
Rate mode, the Envelope is shorter or longer

depending on the notes following each other.

Random

There are also two random sources: Random Unipolar
and Random Bipolar. This random values stays

constant during the note being played but changes
upon each trigger of a new note. So its different for

each note.
To have a modulation source which is random and

changes while the notes is played, use a LFO with a
random Waveform selected in the LFO section.

Alternate

The Alternate modulation source changes between

values of 1 and -1 for each note. This is useful for
modulation effects such as auto-panning (bipolar).

Constant

The Modulation Amount is used as a constant

modulation value (unipolar).
