Miscellaneous; Pitchbend; Joystick - Elektron Monomachine SFX-6 Using Manual

I use the 6 Mono outs constantly as well as the input (mainly processing NL2x).
Don't forget to route your mixers send back into the monos inputs for more
onboard processing.
You can also route out to do frequency cuts. After starting to separate outs it was interesting
how the percussion sounds actually gained a lot of their output from frequency ranges that I
didn't expect them to be in (the kick was in a large part up in the mids, the snares were down
in the lows and the hats were in the mid-highs), I've had a lot of fun cutting out the
unneccessary frequencies to get more of a seperation in the mix. Also told me about how I
was programming stuff.
Adjusting Pitch Bend:
- go to the kit menu
- go to assign
- you will find that the Joy R and Joy L are mapped to pitch bend by default for control with an
external pitch wheel.
- you can select page and destination for each tab at the top.... including the special "pitch
page" and in its destination you should find selections for various ranges of octaves. (i think it
goes up to 8 octvs or something)
- also you can play with the ADD / depth parameter.
If i didn't remember this correctly, check out the ASSIGN section of the manual. I'm pretty
sure the MnM can do what you want in the assign page.
Joystick calibration:
This is how you calibrate the sfx6 joystick.
1. Power up the unit whilst holding the FUNCTION-button.
2. Choose TEST MODE by pressing the first button of the step sequencer.
3. Calibrate the joystick by holding the two OCTAVE keys located to the far right pressed
simultaneously while you move the joystick 360 degrees (you should see a little asterisk
appear on the screen). Then you let go of the joystick and make sure the parameters visible
on the screen reads "80,80". Then release the two OCTAVE keys. Done.
