  • Page 3: Bug Fixes

    Bug Fixes -If a sequencer note tracks sub positions were not all set to zero, and the tracks were doubled, the positions would be wrong. This has now been fixed.
  • Page 4: Sequencer Knob Tracks As Lfo Waveforms

    Sequencer Knob Tracks As LFO Waveforms The sequencer knob tracks can now be selected to be used as LFO waveforms. An extra LFO page has been added for this: Parameters: CtTrA: When this is set to Off, the LFO is running as a normal LFO, generating the same waveforms as it did before this update.
  • Page 5 All other controls work as usual. The rate of the knob wave can be set and modulated, it can be key trigged and it can trigger parts. It is also still possible to use the one time key trigger mode, for using the knob waves as envelopes.
  • Page 6: Knob Tracks "Draw" Mode

    Knob Tracks “Draw” Mode In order to make it easier to see the whole waveform, when using the Knob Tracks as LFO waveforms, a new “Draw” mode has been added to the knob track on the SpazeDrum models with touch screen. On the SpazeDrums without touch screen, it is still possible to use the knob tracks as LFO waveforms, but it is only possible to edit the values via the knob interface.
  • Page 7 The view will now change to draw view. Here you can see all the 64 steps of the knob track at one time, and change the values of the whole track, by drawing with a finger.
  • Page 8: Controller Tracks

    Controller Tracks The 64 Knob tracks can now act as controller tracks, without affecting the knobs. To do this, set the knob track output mode to the new value “OffSM”. The knob track will now no longer be affected by knob positions, or affect the parameters assigned to the knobs.
  • Page 9: New Reso Eq Effect

    New Reso EQ Effect! A resonant EQ has been added to the effects. It is a parametric EQ where frequency, cut/boost, frequency span and resonance (Q) can be set. Since the frequency span and Q can be set as 2 different parameters, this EQ has 2 peaks or dips at higher Q settings.
  • Page 10: New Smooth Dual Tap Mod Delay Effect

    New Smooth Dual Tap Mod Delay Effect! A new dual tap delay effect has been added to both the Insert effects and the Output effects. When you change or modulate the delay times on this, the transition is smooth, and do not generate any clicks.
  • Page 11: New Comb Filter

    New Comb Filter! A comb filter has been added to the effects section. A traditional comb filter with frequency and feedback settings, plus an Edge setting, which will add some character and crunchy distortion.
  • Page 12: New Compressor With Side Chain

    New Compressor With Side Chain! A new compressor effect has been added, which is easier to use than the first one, and which can be side chained to any analog or digital voice.
  • Page 13: Chorus Effect Has Been Optimized

    Chorus Effect Has Been Optimized The Chorus effect has been optimized a bit, so that it is now less clicky.
  • Page 14: New Reverb Effect

    New Reverb Effect The reverb effect from Urano and Zaturn has now been included in SpazeDrum. This is a bit easier to use, than the original reverb.
  • Page 15: Immediate Preset Change

    Immediate Preset Change! When, on the Preset Select Page, you have selected a new preset, which is shown as “Next” on the display, and the Play button is flashing, it is now possible to immediately shift to the next preset, by pushing the Play button.
  • Page 16: Sequencer Continue/Restart Function

    Sequencer Continue/Restart function Usually when you press the play button, to start the playback of a sequence, SpazeDrum will start playing back the sequence from the start step. It is now also possible to make it continue from where it was stopped. To make this happen, go to the SEQ MAIN >...
  • Page 17: Note Track Step Probability

    Note Track Step Probability It is now possible to program the note probability per step, using Knob Track 4 on each of the 16 parts. To make this happen, turn the Prob parameter all the way down. It will now read out “Ktr4”. Now go program knob track 4, to set the probability values for each step.
  • Page 18: Decay Envelopes Vu-Meter

    Decay Envelopes VU-Meter An output VU-meter has now been added to the decay envelopes.
  • Page 19: Blue Color Scheme

    Blue Color Scheme A new blue color scheme has been added, which is a bit sharper and easier to read, than the green one. To switch between the blue and the green color scheme, enter the SETUP > COMMON page. Here, push the Edit button, to change color scheme.
  • Page 20: Parameter Fine Adjust

    Parameter Fine Adjust A parameter fine adjust function has been added. First, adjust the parameter, as you would normally do, with a knob. Then push and hold the Morph Set button, while adjusting the parameter again, using the knob. The parameter will now be adjusted inside a narrow range, and it will be easier to set it at a specific value.
  • Page 21: Metronome Now Only At Playback

    Metronome now only at playback The metronome is now only audible, when the sequencer is playing back.
  • Page 22: Sequencer Count-In

    Sequencer Count-In The 2 bars sequencer record count-in is now only active, when the metronome is on. When the metronome is off, the sequencer will now start recording without any count-in.
  • Page 23: Sequencer Real Time Recording Timing

    Sequencer real time recording timing The timing of the real time recording has been improved, so it is now better at “catching” notes which is played too early.
  • Page 24: Sample Playback Panic

    Sample Playback Panic When the panic function is activated (Func>Copy>Exit), and when an All Notes Off MIDI message is received, all sample playback will now be stopped.
  • Page 25: Midi Program Change Out

    MIDI Program Change Out -MIDI program change is now transmitted, as soon as a new preset is selected, instead of when Spazedrum actually changes the preset, in order to make other connected pattern based instruments change program in time. In Song mode program changes are sent one tic before the preset is changed.
