Buzz Beginnings Part IV

Now with the notes done let's do some effects.
Disconnect both machines from the master module by using the right click menu of the connectors that show the way of the signal flow.

Now let's make a delay, Effects->Delay->FSM panzerdelay
Now connect 808 and Primifun to panzerdelay. Listen to the result.
Seems that the Panzerdelay has made Primifun sound too rough, don't worry we'll get to that later. Let's check 808 by muting Primifun. Do this by pressing on the led (top left corner) that flashes when the machine is playing. When muted the machine's name will be in brackets.

Okay we now make a FSMchorus and a EQ-7. Connect Primifun so that is goes through EQ first then FSMchorus to Panzdelay to the master.

Now you must be hearing the over-distorted sound, don't listen for too long (your ears might pop :-). Now it's time to finalize settings. Go to EQ-7 preferences and put in the following values:

Now we want to extend our masterpiece, let's make it loop from row 0 to row 32. Once we have done this we should program each part to look like this:

That's it. You have done a basic synth with some drums. Now you can start expirimenting with the various modules.
