- Open the parameters of a machine, select a slider, and you can type in values via your keyboard
- Open the parameters of a machine, hit copy, switch over to the pattern editor (F2) and paste (cntrl-v)
- This should paste all the values for the parameters to a pattern
- Problems - notes will be replaced as well or filled in with junk, delete all data in the note fields or any tracker/machine commands
- You can manipulate the parameters with the cntrl i, interpolate or cntrl r, random, or input any other such changes to different patterns and have a 'base' or ' reset' parameter setting to return to (which you just pasted) Demo Bmx Buzz File
Sequence Editor (F4)
- I know these already
- Use Two columns (press control enter and select your machine) for parameter automation - Helps with clarity and you can reuse the automations with other patterns. To record midi input properly for the automation put the pattern inwhich the automation will go on the left of the pattern with the notes in it. Demo Bmx Buzz File (same as above)
- Create a Pattern with only Note Offs Instead of using the (mute), the reasons for this is 1) if you start creating a new pattern with multiple tracks, you don't have to worry about notes still playing from previous patterns 2) mute sometimes produces an undesirable click Good but this is Better
Pattern Editor (F2)
- I know these already
- If you are using a laptop keyboard, there is no gray +/-, to change octaves, the solution is to change the "Base octave" box in the toolbar of F2
- CTRL+SHIFT+RETURN Copy of pattern Creates a copy (clone) of the current pattern
- <,> or ALT+W Change Wave Selects from Wavetable
- Control I to interpolate values
- Use ctrl+2,3,4,5 for melodies with TPB set to 8 or higher
- This will change the amount (rows) that the cursor moves - Note: this only affects note entry not other cursor movements
- Overloader has a profound effect here, many improvements including enhanced ability to explore folders similar to explorer, no crashes upon hitting refresh (problem in win98) and alot more
- Also, in the lowest left box - right click - import level - allows you to assign more than one sample to a number
- You can use that for using multiple samples for different notes or for bits of a chopped up drum loop
- Left click - on the root note - (be patient) - you can change it to whatever you wish (C-4 is the usual)
- Block import wavs (as many as you want) by highlighting the appropriate wavs on the left and right and hit the left arrow
- Perfect for dropping in your favorite drumkit quickly

- Make sure you use version 1.1 not 10
PeerLfo - PeerMachines are fun!
- Simple Start - Add PeerLFO, Right Click on it in the machine editor, Assign A Parameter, Right click on Peerlfo Again to verify
- In the sequence editor, remove peerlfo's column, it will clear up space on your sequence
- You can assign peerlfo to automate more than one parameter of its target machine, Go to the Pattern Editor for PeerLfo
- Simply add tracks to a blank peerlfo pattern, on the machine editor, you will now be now be able to assign than one parameter, Verify
- Bmx Example for PeerLfo
