DAG packaged all of this inside the most spectacular interface we could create.

The Master page contains a wealth of effect controls that operate across the entire mix including:

• Crush (Bit Rate)

MIDI Drag & Drop

Fameboy allows you to drag any created pattern into your DAW for further tweaking.

Simply click the MIDI button and a small icon will appear.

Drag that icon into a sequencer lane in your DAW and have your way with it.

Mixer Page

Every single sound in Fameboy has it's own mixer channel and send levels with controls over:

• Channel Volume
• Pan
• Reverb (Pre-delay, Size, Hi-Cut, Send)
• Echo (Time, Regen, Hi-Cut, Send)

Sequencers

The Sequencers in Fameboy are small but very powerful offering many functions for creating unique and interesting patterns.

Once you have a sequence you can easily export the midi pattern to your host using drag & drop!

Each Sequence can hold up to 8 unique patterns and each pattern can be triggered on-the-fly using keyswitches!

Snapshots

Snapshots are the easiest and most efficient way of loading and saving presets within Kontakt.

FAMEBOY comes with a vast selection of snapshots ready to use.

Go to the snapshots folder inside your product folder and locate the folder named [Fame Boy] then copy that folder to your user content folder.

Fameboy comes with a selection of sound design and sequencer presets from our good friend and talented producer Si Begg.

Tape Drive

The Tape Drive pages offer a full set of controls to emulate classic tape degredation effects to add an authentic layer of analog grit to your drums.

Voice Select

The Voice page is where you'll spend most of your time. There are 16 different channels and each channel has up to 16 different samples to choose from. Each sample also has 4 different variations. By using the 'Style' controls you can move through each style.

• Style A is a clean and modern playback engine
• Style B is a gritty and filtered playback engine
• Style C is a gritty playback engine
• Style D is a gritty playback engine which, is similar to, but differs from Style C

Each sound can be manipulated even further with a selection of sound-design controls and each each sound can be selected for editing using incoming midi notes for ease-of-use.
