Hi,

Ive just started with SM and put together a simple synth with a modulation matrix. Targets like cutoff, volume (and even resonance - add a res input in the filter module) are not a problem but how do I get a LFO and an envelope to modulate the pitch of the various oscillators?

I've looked for examples and searched this site but couldn't find anything.

Also, is there a way to "dissolve" a module after you have made it?

Thanks

André

Hi Andreh

Welcome to the forum! 🙂

I can answer the first part of your question, look at the image below,you will see a way of modulating an osc's pitch with a lfo.

as for the dissolve a module after you have made it,I am not too sure of what you mean m8

Best Regards - Jay

To 'explode' the module into the inner parts (but keep connected the same way)? Sadly no, though that feature has been asked for before, and I think would be very useful sometimes.

CTRL-Z if you have not closed SM. Copy/pasting the guts of a module is not so tricky if you keep the labeled In/Outs temporally to know what connects where.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
