QUICK TIPS

1

Emulating vintage analogues: The DM12 has a very mouldable, ‘chameleonlike’ tone, but if it’s old and drifty you’re after, employ the oscillator and parameter drift options which work wonders!

2

Hands-free pitchbending: Assign aftertouch to bend pitch in the matrix, or use the ‘fingered’ portamento options to glide between notes only when they are played legato-style.

3

Assigning pitchmod: Instead of using a mod matrix slot, hit ‘edit’ under DCO1 & 2 and set your aftertouch and mod wheel to pitch-mod amounts in the menu.

4

Juno-style chorus: Select the ‘Chorus D’ effect and using the SW4 stage only, you can get some very Juno chorus-ish tones! Add pan-spread for extra wideness.

5

Bass: To bump lows, use one of the EQ effects or the ‘bass boost’ button, which bumps the low mids/bottom. To remove lows, use an EQ effect or the high-pass slider.
