GND IMP
with lot of filter and sample rate reduction !


thanks for that tip man, have never thought of using IMP before... been playing with that all day


GND IMP is also very useful for layering snare and add a more violent attack !

GND IMP is one of my go to machines. great for clickity bippity and also can make some nice bass drum layering.

I don't think I have a favorite machine

Each time I work with the synth machines (versus the ROM), I try and make myself use something new, so I used them all equally I guess.

Yeah, GND IMP for those finger-click sounds!

HA! I'm doing that exact thing right now. Nice verby finger snaps w the GND IMP.

EFM bd is where its at.

I LOOOVE all of the E12 sounds because of the re trigger function really good for glitchy IDM sounds..

Good thread by the way

Using this in tandem with hand claps with a fair bit of verb... Thanks for the tip...

I can't think of any particularly weird uses of the PSG in games. Just guessing, it might have been used to play samples on occasion. Also, I don't think that japanese game designers used a lot arpeggio chords (as in 0xy-like effects), even on systems with a lot less sound channels than the MD.

Two nice uses I've found of PSG channels is either as delay channels for FM leads or playing in unison with FM. Since the PSG will mostly be slightly out of tune unless you apply some tricks, it can fatten things up a bit.
