Hi everybody,
I am able to modulate patches in Zebra, but I have nearly no knowledge to make sounds from scratch.
So what about to deconstruct patches I like, as a method, to learn Zebra profoundly and to make my own sounds?

Sure, why not?

Works well if you're *very* methodical about it. Start by disabling the effects, then listen to individual lanes, then check the oscillators within each lane (i.e. unfiltered) and how they are being modulated. Etc. etc.!

Hi Howard,
Thanx ...I think, this is helpfull for my purpose.
Don't think, I 'm so methodical...I just don't know any other way.
Mabe you have some more detailed tips?

Thanx to Evildragon too.

this is a pretty good read for starters...

As you read, experiment in Zebra...

Here reverse engineering doesn't seem to lead any further...when I mute the second lane, nothing is changing.
BTW...this patch seems to use additive synthesis, which is not mentioned in the manual !! So I've no idea , how to use it.

Additive synthesis is called SpectroBlend in Zebra.

Double click (turn off) on Mix3 and Mix2 module, then something will changing.

I don't know this preset, but maybe Lane 2 is being drowned out by Lane 1 until some kind of performance modulation is applied?
