Use the ES2 Mod Pad in Logic Pro for iPad

The Mod Pad has two axes—X (horizontal) and Y (vertical). Two user-defined parameters can be modulated with the X and Y values, allowing you to use your finger like a joystick.

The X and Y axes have positive and negative value ranges. When you drag the control point (gray dot), the values of both axes are continuously transmitted.

Figure. Mod Pad and related Vector Envelope parameters.

The Vector X and Vector Y Target pop-up menus in the Vector Envelope section determine which parameter is modulated by control point (gray dot) movements in the Mod Pad.

These modulation targets are identical to those available in Mod Matrix Slots 1–10. See ES2 oscillator modulation targets, ES2 filter modulation targets, and Other ES2 modulation targets.

The position (coordinates) of the Mod Pad gray dot are also available in Mod Matrix Slots 1–10, as the Pad-X and Pad-Y source and via options. See ES2 modulation source reference and Control ES2 modulation intensity.

The maximum intensity, sensitivity, and polarity of the modulation is set with the Vector X and Vector Y Amount knobs in the Vector Envelope section.

Set the ES2 Mod Pad modulation intensity

In Logic Pro, rotate the Vector X and Vector Y Amount knobs.
Use a negative value to invert the modulation polarity.
