Hi jleroux2010:

It took me a while, but I finally was able to scan and upload the Matrix 12 Preliminary Operation Manual. It is under the Matrix-12 Docs folder and has filename "Matrix12PrelimOpGuide.7z". In spite of the funny filename, it should unzip fine into a pdf file.

As you can see from the first couple of pages, this manual was meant to be used with a Matrix-6 manualas a reference. It highlights the differences between the -12 and the -6 and the matrix-12 unique operations.

I looked briefly at your uploaded patch sheet. Since the individual voice architecture is the same between the M6 and M12, I can think of any reason offhand you can't use the sheet for M12 single patches.

... you're sending me back. I was a subscriber to Electronic Musicion back in 1988, read a lot of Craig Anderton's stuff. I wonder if I still have is music cassette in the closet somewhere...


Anyway, hope this helps!

Regards,

- as

The guide has about a dozen or so illustrations of what the Matrix-12 VFD displays show during various operations, but nowhere near a full 59 illustrations of all the pages and sub-pages. The Preliminary Operations Guide is really a small subset of what was later published in the full Matrix-12 Owners Manual.

Still later, after the retro fit, they gave me a Pressure Sensitivity Owner's Manual Addendum. I have (paper) copies of all of these.
