BPM Synchronized Automation Recording

4.4.2BPM Synchronized Automation Recording

Before to make a BPM synchronized automation make sure the M.207 is in Auto

Recording. Press the MAN/AUT button Figure 4.22 (1) until the red LED above the

PLAY/STOP button lights. If it is already red, you can skip this step.

Press the RECORD button (2). The FXGlide™ LED strip as well as the RECORD button will blink to let you know you have started the recording process. To determine how long you want to record, press one of the buttons in the FXGlide™ Button Strip and select any of the available length ranges from 16 beats (the top button), to one beat (the bottom button).

Figure 4.22

Once a beat division is selected, it will appear in the LCD screen and the FXGlide™ LED strip will stop blinking. This indicates that the M.207 is ready for you to input your automation. Recording will begin when you first touch the FXGlide™ Slider Strip, and you will see AUTOREC appear in the LCD display. (Figure 4.23) When recording your automation sequence, it is a good idea to count the beats in your head so you know how long you have.

If the recording stops at a different point on the FXGlide™ Slider Strip than it started at, there will be an abrupt jump between those 2 points when the automation plays back. In some cases, this can sound good, but in others not so good – so keep this in mind while you are doing your recording.

Figure 4.23

Remember that any time you lift your finger off the slider strip, the FXGlide™ value will go to “0.” To make a smooth sounding pattern, keep your finger on the slider strip until the recording completes.

Once the recording stops, the M.207 will start playing back the automation sequence you just recorded. The PLAY/STOP button will light green to let you know it is playing back an automation sequence, and you will see the FXGlide™ LED strip play back that automation as well. If an effect is engaged, you will hear the pattern you just made controlling the selected effect. To return to the default sine wave automation, press the PLAY/STOP button to turn it OFF. If you wish to re-activate that automation, just press PLAY/STOP again. The automation will remain in memory until a new pattern is created or the M.207 is turned OFF.

4.4.3The Manual Button

While not strictly an automation feature, the MANUAL button deserves a mention here. When a BPM synchronized effect is active, you can stop the default or automated playback and manually control the effect parameter with your finger in real time. To use this feature, first engage an effect (e.g., Phaser). With the Phaser effect active, press the MANUAL button. (Figure 4.24)

When you press the MANUAL button, the sweeping of the effect stops. This is normal. Now use the FXGlide™ Slider Strip to manipulate the effect. Pretty cool, especially as you get lower on the FXGlide™ Slider Strip. You can use the FLANGER in Manual mode and tap on the FXGlide™ Slider Strip to achieve a robotic sounding effect. Try using it with other effects as well.
