SETUP EXAMPLES

67

4.

On the AMP page for all tracks, make sure ATK is 0, DEC 0, SUS 127 and REL INF.

5.

On the FILTER page for all tracks, the DEP parameters should be set to 0.

6.

Place note trigs on the first step of the sequencer. It is necessary to trig the amplitude envelope.

7.

Press play on the Machinedrum.

8.

Press play on the Analog Four. The filters of the synth tracks can now be used to shape the incoming
Machinedrum sound.

For serial filtering, make either one or both oscillators of synth track 1 listen to the external inputs.
Set the WAV parameter of oscillator 2 to NEI on the other tracks. Turn off oscillator 1 on tracks 2-4.
Turn down the track level to 0 for tracks 1-3.

Make the Analog Four listen to MIDI clock and transport controls sent from the Machinedrum.
When pressing play on the Machinedrum sequencer, both units will start to play at the same time
and in the same BPM. Experiment with the tempo-synced LFOs of the Analog Four controlling the
filter parameters.

Place other note trigs on the Analog Four sequencer and experiment with the filter envelope set-
tings.

When using the Analog Four as a stereo filter, let track 1-2 take care of the left signal and track 3-4
take care of the right. Don’t forget to pan the synth tracks responsible for the left and right chan-
nels hard left and right. If you wish to control the FRQ or RES parameters of the left and right
tracks simultaneously, use a performance macro.
