I've been playing with the effects and set up a suitably Black
Sabbath Iron Man type patch on scene 1. Now I wanted a totally out of
control sound for scene 2 so I turned up the feedback, turned up the
fm all the way, set the oscillators 4 octaves apart, and cranked the
ring modulation-with of course the amp simulator on 11. I also
boosted the release value so the out of tune distortion would just
hang there. Then I set everything to morph. Sigh. I get an intersting
sound but it doesn't morph from manic to insane-more like manic to
slightly odd.
The work around-I set the ribbon controller to activate the reverb
(set it on insane, nothing subtle allowed). I play a lead on scene 1,
touch the ribbon controller, the reverb works as a sustain and keeps
the sound sustaining when I switch to scene 2. If you play this loud
at home through a 60s bass tube amp and a 15 inch speaker, you're
almost guaranteed a divorce.
For more insanity set the X axis for reverb depth and the Z axis for
delay depth-turn the delay feedback way up naturally.
For my next experiment, I'm going to try using the eq to get that
heavy metal mid scoop distortion sound. My wife suggested I do this
while she's at work.
