GENERATOR
Controls assignment:
Knob • — BASS — controls lower frequencies;
Knob • • — MID — controls mid-range frequencies;
Knob • • • — HIGH — high-frequencies and the delay;
Sensor FX — DLY-FB — turns on the delay and turns off self-oscillation.
Description:
This is one of the most unusual algorithms of the PIPE. It includes a voice-controlled sound
generator, filters, ring-modulation and a delay with dynamic feedback.
If you make a long and loud sound, the feedback level in the delay will exceed 100% and
part of the sound will freeze in a self-oscillating delay until the input level goes down. You
can also stop self-oscillation by touching the FX sensor.
Tips for using this algorithm:
Create intense rhythmic patterns by combining percussive and tonal sounds. In this algorithm,
you can use techniques that won’t produce sounds in other algorithms. For example, generate
sounds by a slow change of pressure inside the microphone by sucking out the air or blowing
into it.
Using the FX sensor, add stereo-delay in some parts of the composition, e.g. to emphasize
the downbeat. For a purer sound, turn the HIGH knob to zero.
Learn to control the self-oscillation of the delay with the loudness of your voice. For maximum
clarity, turn all knobs to their maximum. The FX sensor should not be pressed.
