This patcher outputs two signals. The left Output has all the device filtering applied and is the signal shown on the scope. The right Raw Signal has only a small amount of low pass filtering applied to the input signal and can be useful for initial velocity measurements when triggering outputs.

Input Selector: can be set to use individual or combined acceleration or rotation signals. The most commonly used signal is Accel+Rot which combines the magnitude of both the acceleration and rotation inputs to detect any kind of movement of the device.

Polarity Selector: can be set to Both, Positive or Negative. When set to Positive or Negative it will only register signals that are changing in a positive or negative direction respectively. This can be useful, for example, to detect a movement to the left while ignoring movements to the right.

Scale: alters the gain of the input. This can be used to boost small movements, or to reduce the signals produced by people, for example dancers, who produce large movement outputs.

Attack and Release: control the attack and release times of the filter used to shape the input signal. The x10 button on each of these controls allows attack or decay times to be multiplied by a factor of 10.

The scope display at the bottom shows how the control signal has changed over the last few seconds.
