Basic Operation
Power On
Push the
Power
switch on the rear to switch on the Memotron m2k. The Memotron m2k will need some seconds to
initialize and will then be ready for use.
!
Attention – First power ON the Memotron m2k and then power ON your audio system in order
to avoid a cracking noise.
•
After powering ON the Memotron m2k and the initialization, settings that were stored in
a “Default Frame” might be loaded automatically.
Power Off
Push the
Power
switch to switch off Memotron m2k.
!
Attention – To avoid a cracking noise, first power OFF your audio system and then switch OFF
the Memotron m2k.
!
By switching OFF the Memotron m2k, all settings will be lost. Thus save your settings as a
'Frame' on a memory card before you switch OFF!
Realtime Sound-manipulation Functions
Up to three sounds (here called tracks) can simultaneously be selected and played in the Memotron m2k. By
means of several controls on the top that can not be stored and only serve your performance, the sound of
the selected tracks can be processed.
A B C
cross-fades
the tracks by turning the knob, simulating the Tron's tape heads shifting from sound to
sound.
PITCH
shifts the pitch 3 halftones up and 3 halftones down. This will slightly affect the maximum duration
of a played note.
TONE
changes the sonic character with help of a passive 12 dB lowpass filter.
HALF SPEED
emulates the halving of the tape speed. The playback-pitch will be lowered by one octave
and the duration of a played note of about 8 seconds is doubled. Using HALF SPEED results in a slight
reduction of the audio quality, especially in higher frequency ranges.
VOLUME
defines the total output volume
