MULTI
Figure 5: MULTI instrument channel of the DRM1 MKIII
MULTI
contains three oscillators with broad tuning ranges. Because of this, the resulting sounds
are very flexible, ranging from bass drums and toms to cowbells and other metallic percussions to
sound effects.
DECAY
sets the sound’s length.
PITCH
defines the overall pitch/frequencies of all three oscillators.
BEND
adjusts the amount of the
DECAY
envelope modulating
PITCH
. Turn clockwise from
the center position to modulate the pitch, descending it. Turn counterclockwise
from the center position will invert the modulation, resulting in ascending pitches.
ATTACK
adds a short fixed needle impulse to the sound’s start to support its assertiveness.
Always adjust
ATTACK
in correlation to the complete mix.
PITCH 2
sets the pitch/frequency of the second oscillator. Changing
PITCH
will always change
the frequency of
PITCH 2
, too.
PITCH 2
can be freely adjusted, so that it sounds
higher or lower than the first oscillator. With
PITCH 2
set fully counterclockwise,
the second oscillator is turned off.
PITCH 3
sets the pitch/frequency of the third oscillator. It works the same way than
PITCH
2
with the second oscillator.
HIGH PASS
adjusts the cutoff frequency of an additional high pass filter. It allows attenuating
bass frequencies of the sound if needed. The filter’s effect depends upon the sound’s
pitch. With
PITCH/2/3
being adjusted above the 9 o’ clock position, the high pass
filter’s effect will be almost insignificant.
