This is an SH-101 patch, but it'll work on the 202 in a pretty similar way... Thanks to Neil Whitelaw for the patch and the SH-101 link. LFO/CLK Rate: 5 Waveform Selector: far left MOD: 3 Range: 8' Pulse Width: 0 LFO/MAN/ENV: N/A Square: 10 Sawtooth: 0 Sub OSC: 0 1OCT/2OCT/2oct: N/A Noise: 0 Freq: 3.5 Res: 10 Env: 0 Mod: 0 KYBD: 10 ENV/Gate: ENV Gate+trig/Gate/LFO: Gate+trig A: 2 D: 5 S: 3 R: 5 NOTES: When setting the all-important filter controls, push the Resonance up to 10, then slowly slide Frequency up from 0 until the sound becomes really clean (should be about 3.5). K Thomas of Mid-Glamorgan printed in December 1984 E&MM.

Mail: rodler@in.tum.de WWW : http://www.in.tum.de/~rodler/ 202-patch: dubstyle (by Dominik Rodler) LFO: doesn't matter VCO: doesn't matter source mixer: doesn't matter VCF: cutoff: 0 resonance: full envelope: 0 modulation: 0 Kybd: full VCA: gate / env ENV: doesn't matter if "gate" is selected, otherwise adjust according to personal taste, e.g. A: 1 D: 0 S: full R: 3 this is a 202 patch which produces very deep and fat bass-sounds
