Analog Drum Machine

Quick Start

Sounds, Beats, and Projects

There are three terms that are important to know:

A Sound is a collection of all settings required to produce a drum or other type

ofsoundwhenyouplayapad,includingsettingsforsamples,oscillators,lters,

VCA,envelopes,LFOs,andmore.Ifthe16 SoundS key is pressed, you can use

the sixteen pads to play the Sound in the selected Beat. After you create a Sound,

youcansaveitasaSoundleforlaterreloadingintoanotherBeat.

A Beat is a collection of all settings needed to produce a drumbeat—a note

sequence up to four measures of 4/4 time, thirty-two Sounds (sixteen in pad bank

A and sixteen in pad bank B), mixer settings, effect settings, and more. Tempest

holds sixteen beats in memory at one time. If the 16 BeatS key is pressed, you

can use the sixteen pads to play the sixteen Beats that are loaded in memory.

AfteryoucreateaBeat,youcansaveitasaBeatleforlaterreloadinginto

another project.

A Project is a collection of nearly everything in memory: all sixteen Beats (each

containing its own thirty-two Sounds), ten Play Lists, and various project-related

settings including the playing tempo.

Going Deeper

There is important information throughout the manual, but pay particular atten-

tion to “The Pad Function Keys” on page 4 to gain a greater understanding

of Tempest’s pad modes and how to use them, and “The Screens Keys” on page

11 to learn how to access and interact with the various types of data on the

graphic display. It is highly recommended to read “Save/Load” on page 39. It

is extremely important and could save you a lot of grief!
