i was reading the manual for my new voyager and theres a few references to the word MOD i assume there talking about the mod wheel ??or is this something different ? the only thing i have the rackmount and my controller doesnt have a wheel it has a joystick .will it work the same as if i had the wheel?
Pg 11:
Modulation - Modulation is the use of a CV to affect a voltage-controlled circuit.
Modulation has a source, destination, and amount. This could be as simple as the
filter cutoff of a VCF (a modulation destination) being changed by the front panel
cutoff control (the source), or as complex as mixing multiple CVs together to
modulate filter cutoff. Modulation is used in synthesis to create complex sounds
and add variation.
- Modulation is performed through the Modulation Busses. There are two separate
Mod busses. One is controlled by the Mod Wheel, while the other is controlled by
the MOD1 CV input. If nothing is plugged into the MOD1 CV Input, then the
PEDAL/ON bus is on at the level determined by the Amount control. In each Mod
Bus, a Modulation Source, Shaping signal and Destination are selected. An overall
maximum modulation amount can be set with the Amount control. The Modulation
CV paths are illustrated in figure 16.
The difference with a joystick is it is X and Y where the mod wheel is only one (Y). So, yes it will work like a mod wheel, but the joystick can control and mix 2 at once.
