Marimbaphone Resurrected

Base Program
* Resonating array of wood & steel at the chamber doorway.
* Change mallet grips, articulations & player position with pedals & switches.

* Insert Mode Program. Program Mix 45%. Adjust for prominence of effect.
* Stutter in Parallel with Resonator. Very intense & peaky in optional Series routing.
* All controls programmed for an interactive approach.

HOTKNOBS
* Increase all HotKnobs to 100 for extended effects development.

Program [P] HotKnob – default (30 OR CC#1)
* Adjust the granular buffer length.

Preset [A] HotKnob – default (50 OR CC#2)
* Adjust the granular stutter, modulation & panning speeds.

Preset [B] HotKnob – default (100 OR CC#3)
* Adjust the delay time container for 4 multi-taps.

PEDALS
EXP1 (saved @ full Heel)
* Increases modulation amount & HP filter cutoff.
* Decreases granular reverb amount, reduces panning to center.
* Increases resonant delay feedback. Freeze at mid-throw & full Toe.
* Cross-mixes resonant BP filters for deeply unusual mod imprints.

EXP2 (saved @ full Heel)
* Increases granular detuning & spread influence.
* Injects reverb into the resonant feedback path.

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
0A). [S/T] Env trig – octave up – minimal smear – 2X/0.5 – RND to All LFO Dest.
0B). [R/N] 4-on-the-floor rhythm – light feedback – medium (-) resonance.

1A). [S/T] Manual trig – unisons – moderate smear – speed up – S&H LFO to Smear/Filter.
1B). [R/N] Alternating bright & dark echoes – moderate feedback – medium (+) resonance.

2A). [S/T] Chance trig – RND intervals up – smear max – slowdown – Square LFO to Filter.
2B). [R/N] Singular echo (x4) – long feedback – deeper (-) resonance.

3A). [S/T] Env trig – all RND intervals – full smear – 2X/0.5 – Triangle LFO to Detune/Filter.
3B). [R/N] Offset shuffle – moderately degrading feedback – deeper still (-) resonance.

PERFORM
1). [P] Act/Byp
2). HS2 [L]
3). HS3 [L]
4). HS1 [L]
5). STUTTER [L]
6). TAP: 80 BPM

    This is excellent – very inventive use of the Resonator algo :)
