Hologram Microcosm - Tempo and Parameter Knobs

5
3 | NAVIGATION & CONTROLS CONT.
Controls the density of the eects.
Turn clockwise to add complexity
and variety. Activity function varies
preset to preset (see Eects).
ACTIVITY
Determines the eect duration or frequency.
Works in tandem with Activity knob. Repeats
function varies preset to preset (see Eects).
REPEATS
Secondary Control: sets Pitch Modulation
depth.
Activity + Repeats: the Activity and Repeats controls work together to provide a wide variety of tonal
options for each preset. In general, Activity gives you “more” or “less” of what each preset does,
and Repeats controls how long the eect goes on for. But rather than controlling any one specic
parameter, Repeats and Activity are both sophisticated macro controls that encompass many
dierent parameters to help you control each eect.
For example, in the Tunnel bank of eects, Activity controls the depth of the sample and lter
manipulation, while Repeats adjusts the amount of time it takes for the drone to decay.
Controls either the Time Subdivision or Global Tempo.
SUBDIV: Determines the musical subdivision of the eect.
TEMPO: Time knob sets the overall global tempo. This mode oers a
manual alternative to Tap Tempo and allows for smooth acceleration/
deceleration of the tempo. In this mode, the eect subdivision is always
set to quarter notes.
*Note: Tap Tempo will still work while Tempo Mode is active.
Tapping this button will toggle the function of the Timeknob between
Subdivisions or Global Tempo. The corresponding light beneath the
button indicates the active setting.
When held, this button functions as a Shift
control, allowing access to a knob’s Secondary
Control. Secondary Controls are labeled in gray
text beneath the corresponding knob.

PhraseLooper: Hold shift and turn Time
knob to change looper playback speed
