––𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡:

• 🔴 Record-enables the buffer. It will not start recording up until you move the slider.

• ▶️ Stops the recording and immediately starts looping.

• ⏹ Stops the recording or the playback.

• 🗑 Clears the buffer (Always delete an old recording before making a new one. Overdubbing doesn’t quite work well for DC signals).

• ❄️ Enables 𝘚𝘛𝘜𝘛𝘛𝘌𝘙 𝘍𝘟.

• ◀️ Reverse. Backwards playback.

• ➖ Half speed.

• ➕ Double speed.

––𝗙𝗫:

• 𝘚𝘛𝘜𝘛𝘛𝘌𝘙: Loops and repeats segments of the recorded movement.

• 𝘐𝘕𝘌𝘙𝘛𝘐𝘈: Slew limiter – Smooths out the movement.

• ∿ | ⎍: Bit depth reduction. Recorded movement is gradually getting reduced to steps as you move the knob clockwise.

• ⇅: Inverts the automation upside down.

––𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗖:

▶️ Playback MODEs:

• Ruler: A meta-slider that controls the playhead position of all 8 sliders of the channel, allowing manual movement through the
recorded automations. Ruler movement can also be looped and have Fx applied to it like the rest of the sliders.

• Loop: Playbacks from the beginning over and over.

• P-Pong: Playbacks back and forth.

• 1-Shot: Plays the recording once. Clocks needs to be running. Retriggers every cycle.

🔗 SYNC: Movement syncs to a beat division and resets every cycle depending on Drambo’s sequence length.

⚠️ JITTER: The Amount of deviation introduced to the recorded automations.

**To set this up in AUM, load Drambo as a MIDI Fx and open the SPRINGS project, then press the hamburger button, from the MIDI SOURCES menu tap on Drambo (MIDI Fx). A dashed line should now appear around its icon. On your mod destinations you might want to filter out channels 13, 14, 15, 16.

**Pressing rewind or stop in AUM while in Free mode will freeze the sliders down to zero, to get them back to moving again press stop then play on each slider individually or to start them all at once tap a beat division button first, then switch back to Free mode.

**Sliders on the 𝗙𝗫 and 𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗖 panel are for displaying values only. Use the sliders on the 𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡 panel to record your automations.

**There is no pause all button in the rack, but you can press MUTE then tap on top of the device tab to pause all the sliders of a channel.

**I used Espiegel123’s note generator workaround (from the Switch Button Looper patch) to go past a persisting state saving issue.
