Source 1 and its Depth

Src1Src1 · Depth · polarity

Source 1 adds the source's value times the Depth. A unipolar source (0..1: the mod wheel, a slider, velocity) moves the row one way only, toward the Depth's sign; a bipolar one (−1..+1: an LFO, the pitch wheel, BKeyNum) swings it both ways. A negative Depth turns the movement over.

WHAT TO KNOW

THE FIELDS

Src1 names the source, Depth says how far its full value moves the row: up to ±7200 cents on the pitch or a filter, in dB on a level or a gain.

POLARITY

Unipolar: 0 at rest, 1 at the top, so the row moves from its value toward value + Depth. Bipolar: −1..+1 around 0, so the row swings from value − Depth to value + Depth.

USE IT FOR

A slider on a filter, an octave switch on a button or a slider (1200 cents on the pitch), a brightness that rises up the keyboard with KeyNum, a level that follows velocity.

WATCH OUT

A unipolar control at rest gives 0: the row sits at its value until you move it. A bipolar LFO in Src1 takes the row below its value as much as above.

IN THE FACTORY PROGRAMS

24,642 rows use Source 1: 19,567 with a unipolar source, 5,075 with a bipolar one; 6,272 have a negative Depth.

HOW TO ON YOUR K2700 · 276 Studio A Strings

Studio A Strings opens its filter with Slider 1. Turn its Depth round, then try a bipolar source.

  1. In Program mode choose 276 Studio A Strings (KEYPAD, 276, ENTER).

    Program mode with 276 Studio A Strings
  2. Press EDIT, then MORE and DSP MOD. On the LP Frq row Source 1 is MIDI12 (Slider 1), Depth 5700 ct: a unipolar source, so the slider only opens the filter from its value.

  3. Move to the Depth and turn the Alpha Wheel to -5700 ct: now Slider 1 closes the filter instead.

  4. Move to Source 1 and choose PWheel, the pitch wheel: bipolar, so the filter now moves both ways from its value as the wheel goes up and down.

  5. Press EXIT and answer NO to leave the factory program as it was, or SAVE to keep your version on a USER ID.
