Posted on Sat 20 Sep 2025, 06:23 AM Hi, So, recently Ive been attempting to create nature sounds with Mask1. One such that I found interesting, was the sound of chirping cricket[s]. Ill post the parameters because I was going to try and see if changing them might yield other related sounds like for birds, maybe wind blowing through grass, or waterfalls. Probaby the weirdest part is when playing in upper register and applying aftertouch, it makes the cricket sound more unusual. So for the cricket sound, I did as follows: osc1: mask 175, semi -60, tune 0, start 2, spd 8, loop bidi osc1 env: L30, A0, D6, S15, R9, loop no osc2: mask 460, semi -45, tune 0, start -4, spd 32, loop bidi osc2 env: L30, A0, D6, S15, R8, loop no noise: ø noise env: ø Filter: cutf 36, reso 17, mode BP, trk 100, extra 24 dB Filter env: L-20, A5, D8, S4, R13, loop YES LFO1: Amt 1, spd 12, dest FX1 typ, wave Sin, dly 0, dcy 0 LFO2: Amt 3, spd 3, dest FX2 typ, wave sin, dly 0, dcy 0 FX1: 1Bal 100, 1Typ RM15 FX2: 2Bal 65, 2Typ DL8 Arp [ø] Pitch [ø] Mod: V [ø], M - dest Freq, M - amt 15, AT - dest Flt, AT - amt 15 General: Mode [Poly]
