Chapter 2: Playing the A6
ANDROMEDA A6 REFERENCE MANUAL 71
SYNC/MOD Button
Pressing the SYNC/MOD button that is located directly below the TEMPO knob displays
the parameters for modulating the tempo of the Clock by any of the A6’s 71
modulation sources. Use
SYNC/MOD to modulate the tempo of the Clock by the
selected mod source.
SYNC/MOD Parameters
If the
SYNC/MOD button is pressed, the following parameters will be shown on the
display. Unlike other MOD pages, there's no
DEST parameter controlled by Soft
Knob 6 because there is only one destination, the
CLOCK RATE.

DESCRIPTION
MOD
—
SOURCE
Any of the A6’s 71
modulation sources.
See Appendix B.
Use soft knob 1 to scroll through the list of
possible modulation sources.
—
LEVEL
-100 ··· +100
This parameter sets the amount of modulation
that will affect the tempo. Keep in mind that
negative values invert the action of the selected
source. For example, if Velocity is the source and
a negative value for
LEVEL is used, playing
harder will reduce the level and thus slowing
the tempo of the Clcok.
—
OFFSET -100 ··· +100
This parameter sets the offset or fine adjustment
for the selected modulation level.
SYNC/MOD
Button + LED
ENABLE ON, OFF
This parameter is used to turn the selected
modulation on or off. Use soft knob
5 or the
panel button.
SEQUENCER
A sequence is a series of two or more “events” (usually musical notes) that play one
after another – or “in sequence.” The A6 Sequencer is a simple 16-step, 3-level
modulation source/note triggering module. It follows the functionality offered by
the early analog sequencers found in the Moog and Buchla modular synthesizers, as
well as many others.
The Sequencer is a per Program function: each of the 128 user Programs can have its
own sequence that is saved in memory along with all of its other settings.
