Using MicroMonsta 2
Currently edited program
MicroMonsta 2 can play up to 2 sounds at the same time – loaded into Programs A and B.
Only 1 Program can be edited at a time, and it can be selected by pressing its corresponding A or B button
(B button will be disabled in monotimbral mode).
Currently edited program always has its LED lit as an all time indication.
Navigating pages
Synthesis parameters are mapped across different sections accessed by pressing a button on the front
panel.
When a section has several pages, you access them by successively pressing the same button several
times. When you are on the last page, it returns to the first one.
For example, pressing OSC several times will make you travel the following pages: OSC1 > OSC2 >
OSC3 > OSC1 > OSC2 etc.
Some sections (the ones labelled in orange) are accessed by long-pressing the corresponding button. For
example long-pressing OSC will take you to the Mixer page.
Some pages can have sub-pages accessed by turning encoder 1 (all the orange labelled sections for
example)
All this may seem complicated while reading, it is however quite fluent once you have the gear in front of
you.
Editing parameters
Encoders
The LCD screen provides up to 4 parameters to edit at the same time.
Use encoders 1-4 to change their corresponding parameter value.
Knobs
The 3 knobs F, Q and M are factory mapped to (respectively) filter frequency, resonance and mod knob
(accessible in the mod matrix).
They can be remapped either globally or per preset to any synthesis parameter.
