SOUNDENGINE
In this chapter, we would like to introduce the sound generation and it‘s parameters.
Instruments
All drum sounds can be edited directly with the knobs of each instrument. Next to this, the
Data knob shares an additional parameter for most of the instruments. It can be accessed
as soon as the instrument is selected.
Hidden Parameter ”Sound”
In Record Mode (and only in Record Mode) some instruments feature another ”hidden“
parameter that can be accessed via Sound button and Step buttons. If this parameter is
availableonaninstrument,theSound-LEDashesafterRec/ManTrghasbeenpressed.
More on this later in the chapter Record Mode.
