Quick-Start
Guide
to
the
Cye/one
This section explains how to get
up

running (without gelling into serious programming
or editing),
by
taking advantage
of
the
16
Factory Programs shipped with the Cyclone.
Each Factory Program behaves
in
a different way, which provides the ability to try out
many
of
the
Performance Effects available with
the
C)'Clonc
in
a short time.
