Focus next on the Attack and Decay settings to build the envelope of the drum you are creating. Adjust this, and the Rate setting, to craft your tone. If you want to add Pitch Modulation, notice the Depth knob may be set to 0 by default (if so, you won't hear any modulation initially). To start, dial the Mix knob to 100% OSC and hone in on the Oscillator Frequency for your chosen Waveform. The Drum Oscillator is split into two sections, "OSC" and "Noise", with a "Mix" knob to blend the two together. Under the Synthesis section, drag "Drum" into the Oscillator Editor of your Edit page (above the MF3 keyboard). Then click the Oscillator Browser button (the waveform button, second from the left in the Browse tab). To access it, click the Browse menu in MachFive 3's Main view. MachFive 3's Drum Oscillator is a powerful drum synthesis engine, tailored for programming high quality drum grooves.
