Curve section in the Matrix

Hi there,
in the maual of z3ta is not so much deep information about the curve settings. Is there another manual or tutorial that are showing how to handle with these setting?
Or are anywhere some graphics that are showing the curves?
 
Thanks and best regards, Tomas

    Hi Tomas,
    I'm not sure if this answers your question, but did find it interesting and somewhat related:

    The Modulation Matrix behaves differently than in most synths, and that is the part that takes some getting used to. For example, in order to route the modulation wheel to close filter 1, it's not as simple as simply slapping "Modwheel" as the source, and "filter 1 cutoff" as the destination, then entering a negative value in the range slot. You have to put "ON" as the source, set "Filter 1 Cutoff" as destination like you normally would, THEN...you have to select a negative curve under the CURVE slot, select "Modwheel" under the CONTROL slot, then finally enter a POSITIVE value in the RANGE slot. Whew!! Man, oh man...when I first got Z3ta, I was tearing my hair out in frustration just trying to figure that out! The thing is, with added complexity like this comes added power. You can adjust the curve in how that filter modulation behaves. Select "Slow -" in the CURVE slot and then when you move the modwheel, the filter will close in a logarithmic fashion instead of a linear one.
     
     
     
    (Unless you're talking about Catherine Zeta Jones.......there should be plenty of online graphics showing those curves. )
