>Now: is there someone to give me a lesson how to use the Sid-Table,
>          or give me an overview about the special "magic" in it?



1. Start a new patch..

2. Go to the [ osc ] oscillator section ..

3. Select single, or poly .. doesn't matter..

4. Then either GoEdit or select o1, o2, or o3 (depending on what you
selected)

5. Go to [ Tabl ]    (next to [ Vib ] )

6. Set the speed ( 0 is too fast to hear each step, so set it to 32, the
slowest speed )

7. go to [ Edit ]

8. Now what you have is the table editor (like a tracker / step sequencer )

9. The "D" key adds a step, the "O" key removes a step. So add some steps
with "D".

(they look like this --> )

00 --- -- ---
01 --- -- ---
02 --- -- ---

10. Now you navigate around this using your arrow keys (+ the rotary wheel
to go up & down if you want) ..

11. Then use the number keys to add waveforms to the table :

    1. Triangle
    2. Saw
    3. Pulse
    4. Mix
    5. Noise
    6. OFF!

(looks like this --> )

01 Tri -- ---
02 Tri -- ---
03 Mix -- ---

etc

Add some and see what happens!..

12. Other parameters are added to the next space (S & R or none in the
middle)..

13.  The final one is for transposition of the sound . (i think?)

I can't tell you what then S and R do exactly (sync and ringmodulation?)..
the lastly I think is the transposition -- maybe someone could fill these
gaps for me? (elektron?) :)

So explore this, it's certainly unique, and will bring those c64 days
flooding back ..
as well as some new ideas too :) ...

oh yes and as mentioned, play it really fast for videogame effects &
percussive sounds!

enjoy..
