Common Make Noise 0-Coast Questions
How do I sync the 0-Coast to an external MIDI clock?
Set the MIDI Mode switch on the back panel to 'Clock' to sync the 0-Coast's tempo to incoming MIDI clock signals; ensure your external clock is transmitting on the correct MIDI channel, selectable via the MIDI Channel switch also on the rear panel.
Can I save presets or patches on the 0-Coast?
The 0-Coast is a semi-modular synthesizer and does not have internal memory for saving presets; instead, document your settings or take photos for later recall.
What's the best way to create a simple drone or sustained tone?
Patch the square wave output of the triangle wave generator into the Slope input on the Overtone oscillator, and adjust the slope and overtone parameters to shape the sound.
Why am I not getting any sound out of the 0-Coast?
Double-check that the main output level knob is turned up, the dynamics section is open (ensure the 'Hold' button isn't engaged), and that there's a signal present at the audio output jack.
What's unique about the 0-Coast's Dynamics section and how does it differ from a typical VCA?
The Dynamics section on the 0-Coast is a combined VCA and lowpass gate, allowing for both amplitude control and tonal shaping based on the control voltage applied, providing percussive and organic character compared to a simple VCA.
