Operating mode: Sound mode

Operating modes

Neuron distinguishes between two operating modes:

sound mode and setup mode. The latter you are

probably familiar with – it has the same underlying

concept as multimode.

Neuron comes on line in sound mode.

Operating mode: Sound mode

As its name would indicate, in sound mode you can

play individual sounds, edit, and store them. You are

also free to create new sounds by loading models

into the resynators, editing their parameters, and

doing other fun stuff like defining envelopes or

piling on silver effects. Since this operating mode

pertains to a single sound, it is also called single

mode.

How to enter/exit sound mode

Sound mode and setup mode are mutually exclusive.

To access sound mode, quit setup mode by pressing

the setup button. The LED above the button does

not light up when Neuron is set to sound mode.

You will find out how to store, load and edit sounds

in the section starting on page 50.

Operating mode: Setup mode

In setup mode or multimode, sounds created in

sound mode are combined into setups. A setup may

contain up to four sounds that can be played

simultaneously.

Sound mode and setup mode are mutually exclusive.

To access setup mode, quit sound mode by pressing

the setup button. The LED above the button lights

up when Neuron is in setup mode.

Selecting sounds:

Located above the main display you will find four

buttons labeled sound 1 to sound 4. Every button

represents a sound stored in the current setup. You

can assign sounds to buttons in setup mode. For
