Tutorial: Programming your own patches
If you can't wait to get started programming your own Octopus presets,
here's a tutorial explaining how to create a simple FM patch using two
oscillators, an amplitude envelope and a filter. The following tutorial
certainly doesn't cover all aspects of the instrument. If you're looking for
more detailed information on any particular aspect of the Octopus then
you'll need to consult the appropriate section in the manual. Let's get
started...
1. Switch on Osc 1 on the top left of the Oscillator Matrix.
2. Set Osc 1's Mix parameter (on the far right of the Oscillator Matrix)
to 1.0.
3. Set Osc 1's Amplitude (in the Oscillator Editor section) to 1.0.
4. If you now trigger the instrument it will play a sine tone!
