It is important to get a good understanding of
all four elements of a step. This will help to get
the most from step sequencing. This section
provides a deeper dive into the two FX slots.
FX slots have access to a library of 37 effects
that are applied in a somewhat different way to
the normal expectation. These can apply both
audio and MIDI applications to modulate and
control as well as traditional effects such as
delay. These can be applied step by step
giving intimate control over each step and
when built together with other steps offers a
very creative option in Tracker Mini. These are
very powerful and without doubt are worth the
time and learning investment to get to know
the range and application of effects available.
It is important to recognise that step effects are
different to the general instrument and master
effects provided. The normal effect convention
is to operate inline or as a send conguration
for the audio pathway. The Tracker Mini FX are
polarised to the step itself or to the pattern in
which it is operating. This offers a extremely
wide range of creative options at a per step
level. Some step FX are even applied to all
tracks for example Tempo. The FX browser
provides a quick reference for each effect.
These descriptions are found in the Tracker Mini
FX selection page and can be selected for each
component. The help guide is useful when
working in the box, offering a basic reference.
This section aims to take a FX focussed view
and gives a more detailed and in depth
reference along with some practical and simple
examples of applying FX into a pattern.
