I was -this- close to buying a Fabrikat yesterday when they were still in stock (12 hrs after launch). Matrise was sold out by then.

Hey folks! I'm still learning the ways of the Fabrikat, and still need a cheat sheet. Something halfway between the full instructions and the pedal plate, aimed at accentuating the patterns in the banks and programs. I figure memorizing the programs will help me better operate this beast live!

Here it is in case it's useful to you all, too. I'm printing it out and taping it up on the wall by amp, until it's engrained in my noodle.

Starting to dig into Fabrikat, and my brain is starting to remember some things.

Did some noodlings with the Concertmate-500, mostly just seeing how the patches work with drones:

trio (tapes/voice/clarinet/synth/poems): https://ourwaytofall.bandcamp.com/
band (spontaneous kosmische): https://stargoon.bandcamp.com/

Also found my first "preset", which I have preserved as a MS Paint image:

Early research is showing that one can push the feedback on the Shuffle/mask patch a lot further than on most others without veering into runaway oscillations; it sorta gives the masking a random stutter/trem kind of sound. Pushed that as far as I could go into abstraction here:

didn't know what you were talking about so i checked..it is!
Although the white one without the tall knobs is the ones that satisfies my eyes the most.

Thanks! The move to tall knobs is for two reasons:
* Easier to source good quality knobs (less waste)
* Easier to play the pedal. I have quite thin fingers, but accessing the toggle switches can be a struggle without altering the knobs surrounding them :)

I figured you were playing into the reverb flipper crowd by creating a variety of flavors for people to collect. That rarity factor and all :lol:
