Different people have different learning styles and over the last fifty (!) years, if nothing else I have figured out that I learn much faster by reading than by watching videos (or listening to audio feeds)....partially because I'm not an auditory learner anyway, and partially because it's far more time efficient to read through a document.

Another way to learn, that's fast, is to study other presets, and how they were done.
You can just click off, and on different modules, and examine their settings.
That's how I learned. Never read the manual, beyond quick viewing, and I'm blocked from the youtube video's, so I just examined the presets. Try it.
Don't forget to try out all the osc spectral fx too. As you can get very interesting sounds using them, very quickly. Patience helps too.

Good luck.

that is probably the best way to learn zebra

Thanks everyone for the feedback, I really appreciate it. Just to put things in perspective, let me say that I'm reasonably familiar with most synthesis models (subtractive, additive, FM, physical, granular, etc) so I know typically what modules do and how they should be connected to get the sound I want.



So I didn't really want to start reverse engineering patches. A a quick review of the manual that's already on the site was enough to see what modules are available but I was baffled by the routing (connection) model. For example, I expected to get FM modulation when I connected two oscillators together serially and so I was surprised that I was just getting summed results from the output of the second oscillator.

However, since Urs has now confirmed that the connection model is not consistent, I can just take that into account so I'm good to go.
