Make Noise MMG - Manual (Page 10)

TIPs and TRICKS:
-To achieve classic Low Pass Gate sounds, use a complex audio signal source such as a Frequency
Modulated SINE wave and apply Gate or Clock signal to STRIKE Input. Set FREQ to Full CCW (0%).
-At lowest cut-off frequencies the High-Pass filter setting will seem to pass the signal with no change.
Conversely, at highest cut-off frequencies the Low Pass filter setting will seem to pass the signal with little
change. This is typical behavior for most filters.
-An un-modulated SINE or Triangle wave as audio signal source will result in the filter circuit behaving like a
VCA. Since there is almost no harmonic content in the signal to be filtered only the fundamental frequency of
the SINE wave is audibly processed and the fundamental IS the SINE.
-Use DC IN to achieve original QMMG signal path.
-Don't forget to set the MODE CV Attenuator according to your desires when even when nothing is patched
to MODE CV IN, since the FREQ control signal is normalled to the MODE CV IN.
-Use the AC IN Drive to adjust the character of the both the input signal and the resonance.
More Patch Ideas:
Cicadas:
Patch audio source to AC Input. Adjust level control until just below where the Overload LED lights. Patch
LFO or other slow CV to DC Input. Note Overload LED lighting in time with LFO. Adjust Q fully CW (100%).
Because the overload circuit cancels out resonance, the sound will morph between saturation and heavy
resonance. Adjust cutoff, mode and Q to taste.
Constant Power:
With no cable in the MODE CV Input, adjust MODE panel control (blue knob) full CW (100%) and input
attenuator full CCW (-100%). This will cause the mode to be high-pass at low cutoff frequencies, morphing
toward low-pass at high cutoff frequencies, ensuring some portion of a full-spectrum signal will always be
present at the output regardless of cutoff.
