ModSynth Control Specifications
The following table describes the range of the controls on each of the ModSynth modules. The curve indicates how the control modifies the range:
- linear -- means the control directly changes the value
- squared, exponential -- means the control changes the value little when lower and more when higher. This gives the control more sensitivity on the lower values of the range.
- sqrt -- means the control changes the value more at the low end and less at the high end. This gives the control more sensitivity at the high end of the range.
