Massive 9 – Modulation types

Author: sleepfreaks

Controlling modulation in different perfomance settings


There are 4 types of modulations in the “MACRO CONTROL” box.

You can control the amount of modulation depending on the situation,
bringing out small nuances at times, all the way to making explosive effects.

We recommend this skill for those who are looking to use Massive in live performance.

Understanding the 4 types of modulators

You can utilize it in the same way as “Env” and “LFO.”

  • KTr_Key tracking
    The modulation is controlled by the notes (high or low)
  • Vel_Velocity
    The modulation is controlled by how hard the keys are played
  • AT_After touch
    The modulation is controller by
    the harder/weaker the keys are pushed (held down)
  • TrR_Trigger random
    The modulation is activated when played
