Use the instrument view to load, save, or edit the main settings for the sounds used in
the song. There are 128 instruments available per song that each contain settings, 2
envelopes, 2 LFOs, and a table.
The M8 has 5 instrument types to choose from. Change the “TYPE” parameter to select
one of the types currently available: Wavsynth, Macrosynth, Sampler, FM Synth, and
MIDI Out. The default type is set to “NONE” which helps both you and the M8 know
when a instrument slot is being used. Use “LOAD” or “SAVE” to load or save an instru-
ment preset from the SD card.
General Instrument Settings
• TYPE - Set the instrument type as described above.
• LOAD / SAVE - Load or save a instrument preset to the SD card.
• NAME - helps keep your song organized when browsing through instruments, saving
an instrument, or exported when “bundling” your song.
• TRANSP. - Enable or disable note transposition from a chain transpose column or
the project view transpose setting. This is useful for selectively disabling transposi-
tion on instruments that are used for percussive or eect elements.
• TABLE TIC - Set the default speed at which the instrument’s table increments through
each step. The default is “01” or one tick per table step. “02” will be two ticks per
step and so forth. “00” will hold and step through the table each time the instrument
is triggered successively. “FF” sets the rate to 400 Hz. This setting can be overwrit-
ten by the TIC command eect in the phrase or table.
