Base Program
* Looper-adjacent: long, worn-out spools wobbling into longer digital cleanliness.
* Use EXP2 or the [P] HotKnob as master controls over loop decay [100% default].
* Use EXP1 or the [A] HotKnob as varispeed control over Head Space tape decks.
* Dual TAP controls to set individual lengths for tape deck -OR- granular buffer.
*** [Oops! Initial upload mistakenly left in Parallel mode. Series matches text].
* Insert Mode Program. Program Mix 50%. Adjust for effect presence.
* Head Space into Cosmic Web. Less cluttering in the optional Parallel routing.
* All controls were programmed for interactive results.
HOTKNOBS
Program [P] HotKnob – default (100 OR EXP2)
* Overall loop decay for Head Space + Cosmic Web (with H/S feedback re-routing).
* Up to infinite looping for Cosmic Web – hard limit on Head Space danger area.
* ‘True’ looping: Play in a motif / crank down [P] / add in performance overdubs.
Preset [A] HotKnob – default (69 OR EXP1)
* High-voltage variable motor, abusing the delicate cobbling of electronics.
* Adjust to delay array positions slowly, get extreme pitch bend effects rapidly.
Preset [B] HotKnob – default (50 OR CC#1)
* Tilt control over both sets of pitch-shifted intervals in Cosmic Web.
* Another excellent target for performance, printed onto current recordings.
PEDALS
EXP1 (saved @ full Toe).
* Controls the deck speeds / tape lengths covered by the 4 playback heads.
EXP2 (saved @ full Heel)
* Controls all delay regeneration levels in Head Space & Cosmic Web.
* Reduce detuning mirrors in Cosmic Web from slight-to-no influence.
SWITCHES
* AUX 0 = default
* AUX 1,2,3 mapped to HS1, HS2, HS3 (momentary)
* AUX 4,5,6 mapped to HS1, HS2, HS3 (latching)
Program Alternates
0). Badly maintained 4-track Franken-deck – brick room inside metal grain elevator.
1). Lightning strike on electrical panel – minor ozone clouds blanketing the facility.
2). Sunlight streaking through weather-beaten rooftop – affecting every fifth panel.
3). Tape deck severely in need of alignment & maintenance – time stands still.
PERFORM
1). [P] Act/Byp
2). TAP [A] – Head Space
3). TAP [B] – Cosmic Web
4). HS1 [L]
5). HS2 [L]
6). HS3 [L]
