A Container for Global Modulators


The Global Modulator Container can hold Modulators that are not directly linked with a Sound Generators chain. They only create their modulation signal, so you can consider them as modulation sources that can be picked up at various places within HISE.

Global Modulator targets

You can fetch the modulation signal created by the modulators in this sound generator with the "Global.."-Modulators all over your Module architecture. This makes it possible to use the same Modulator in different locations.

Note that you are limited to a single connection per global modulator and the modulation type must also match the modulation source:

Matrix modulation targets

A much more flexible option of picking up the modulation signals was introduced in HISE 5.0 with the Matrix Modulator . Unlike the global modulator, this module can pick up and combine multiple modulation signals into a single modulation signal that can be fed into the modulation chain at the target location. This allows you to create a much more flexible modulation architecture.
