timbre / color

When in synth mode, this affects the voice. See the Synth information for details on what each knob does. In Sample mode this changes sample in / out points. In midi mode this edits velocity & hold time.

filter

Lowpass filter, A controls cutoff, B controls resonance.

vol / pan

pitch

A controls legato, the speed at which pitches slide to the next pitch. B controls fine tuning of the note.

Envelope 1

This envelope is always routed to volume, but can be optionally routed to a second target. A controls attack time, B controls decay time.

Envelope 2

This envelope is unrouted by default. It can be routed to a single target. A controls attack time, B controls decay time.

LFO

The LFO speed is derived from the current tempo, so changing the tempo will alter this speed. A controls speed, B controls depth.

retrig

A controls speed. Lower speeds are faster. B controls Length. Length is how many retriggers there will be.

Env 1 Destination

An additional routing for the Env. Depth is how much the envelope effects the parameter. Negative depth reverses the effect of the envelope (fades out then in).

Env 2 Destination

A controls routing for the second Envelope. This is required on Env 2. B Controls depth, how much the envelope effects the parameter. Negative depth reverses the effect of the envelope (fades out then in).

LFO Destination

A Controls destination for the LFO.

Retrigger decay

A controls if the retrigger fades in (negative) or fades out (positive).

Pattern Length

How many steps this voice uses on this pattern, and how fast each step is. This can be set per voice per pattern. When editing this parameter, press prm+13 again to double the pattern length, copying the existing pattern twice as long.

Probability

Sets a random probability for each step (or an individual step is set via parameter locks). A sets condition type, Rnd or Len. B controls the condition depending on the type.

• Rnd: randomized probabilty of trigger
• Condition: Len sets a number of time the step plays per pass through the pattern. For example 1:3 will play on the first pass through the pattern, every 3 times through the pattern.

Effects Sends

Delay and reverb sends. Press prm+fxs a second time to access delay settings. The delay is a simple digital buffer, so live edits will introduce glitches.

Mode

Under the voice mode parameter (16) - there are three submodes, each with several options. A controls the primary mode, and B controls the secondary mode.

• Synt: A set of oscilators and drum triggers based on the mutable instruments Braids. More information on the oscilators is available in the braids documentation.
• Samp: Simple sampler.
• Midi: Midi output control.

Step Mode

While write is not lit, choose a note by pressing a button 1-16. Then press rec to enter recording mode. Pressing buttons 1-16 will enter the last selected note on those steps.

Live Mode

While rec is not lit, and the pattern is not playing, hold rec, then press play. Once in live mode, notes played using the buttons 1-16 will be stored in the current pattern.

Parameter Lock

While in step mode, hold down a lit step and move a knob to store a parameter lock for that step. There are 128*16 parameter locks available.
While in playback, holding down record and moving a knob will store parameter locks for playing steps as it passes.

Edit Page

To change the page you are currently editing for the pattern, press the page button. This only applies if the pattern has more than 16 steps.

Copy Voice

Hold rec + sound + 1-16 to copy the current voice to a different channel. This will overwrite the voice in this channel.

Copy Pattern

Hold rec + pat + 1-16 to copy the current pattern to a different pattern.

Erase Pattern

Hold exit + pat to erase the current pattern.

Erase Voice

Hold Exit + prm to erase the current Voice.
