D beam and MFX at the same time

Post by symmatik »

Hi guys, I'm kinda new to the board (I used to post under preqwal, but this is my new side project)

Just wondering, if you can use both the D-beam filter effect and the MFX at the same time?

I've just ordered an sp555 and haven't received it yet to try.

random D-beam trick i just tried, worked pretty well (a little off topic)

-Play D-beam, choose one of the less awful sounds
-Turn on MFX for chromatic pitch shift (the one where you can choose 2 notes)
-Apply MFX to D-Beam synth
-Hold hand steady-ish on a note, tune the 2 pitches to a chord, ie hold a C on d-beam, tune in an Eb and a G for a cminor
-Resample/loop capture that to a pad....repeat to create as many chords if you want

* if you want to get fancy, now take one of those samples, and apply the pitch shift again to it to get complex chords (ie, minor9, maj6) based on theory - now you have a 5 note chords

Then apply bit crush / vinyl sim to dirty them up...and so on
