Random Patch Generator
RANDOM PATCHES
The RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR
can be used to generate a new
sound automatically or a modify
an existing sound at random. The
PAR DEPTH and AMOUNT parame-
ters let you determine how radi-
cally the sound is changed.
Depending on the values that you
set here, the RANDOM PATCH
GENERATOR will do anything from
modifying sound parameters
subtly to morphing one sound into
an entirely different sound.

The RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR
is activated when you presses the
button STORE while the display is
showing one of the two RANDOM
parameters. The results of the
computation are stored in the Edit
buffer and can be heard immedia-
tely. You can also press STORE
several times in order to create
successive sound changes. If you
want store a sound permanently
that the RANDOM PATCH GENERA-
TOR has created, simply save it to a
SINGLE memory slot in the usual
manner. For this purpose, press the
SINGLE button to activate PLAY

If you want to restart the process
with the original sound settings,
simply return to PLAY mode back
and select the desired sound
again.

PAR DEPTH This parameter deter-
mines the number of sound
parameters that are influenced by
the RANDOM PATCH GENERATOR.
If you enter a low value for PAR
DEPTH, just a few parameters will
be modified. Beyond that, the
manner in which the few parame-
ters are edited assures that the
sound is manipulated “organi-
cally”. This simply means that it
isn’t bent radically so that, for
example, the given sound can still
be played “tonally”.

As you increase the values for PAR
DEPTH, other parameters that
have a greater impact on the tim-
bre of the sound are changed. At
