-==== Tutorial ====
-**How to setup some basic patches from scratch. The examples are designed for the Microwave II/XT, but should also work (with some minor changes) on the Microwave I.**
-This is a short excerpt from the book by Uwe G. Hoenig - "Microwave in der Praxis" \\
-(ISBN 978-3-932275-26-5)
-=== Bass ===
-== Sweep-Bass ==
-First, all parameters are reset to reasonable start values with "Init Sound V1.1".\\
-The Oscillators Octave is switched to -1, because we want to play bass, don't we?\\
-Startwave should be sawtooth on both waves.
-A detune -7 / +7 gives a nice [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)|beat]].
-  * Oscillators
-    * Octave Parameter = -1 / -1
-    * Startwave = 63 / 63
-    * Detune = -7 / +7
-The filter cutoff frequency is first set to zero, and then will be controlled by the Envelope Amount at full range.\\
-A decay of approximately 65 and sustain equal 0 produces the desired sweep.
-  * Filter & Filter Envelope
-    * Filter 1 Cutoff = 0
-    * Filter 1 Cutoff Envelope Amount = +63
-    * Filter 1 Sustain = 0
-    * Filter 1 Decay = 65
-To make the sound a bit more interesting, the following values are entered:
-  * Quality
-    * Time Quantization = 5
-  * Mixer
-    * Wave 1 Level = 70
-    * Wave 2 Level = 70
-And finally, here comes the most important parameter:
-  * Filter
-    * Filter 1 Resonance = 80
-That's it, we programmed our first patch! Although it sounds a bit dump, it is perfectly suited as a basis for some more sophisticated ones.
-== Moog-Bass ==
-(Based on the Sweep-Bass patch above)
-  * Filter Envelope
-    * Filter 1 Attack = 0
-  * Amplitude Envelope
-    * Attack = 0
-  * Filter
-    * Filter 1 Decay = 16
-    * Filter 1 Sustain = 70
-    * Filter 1 Cutoff Envelope Amount = +47
-Optional:
-    * Octave Parameter for Osc1 / Osc2:  0 / -1
-    * Startwave 62 (square)
-== Dub-Bass ==
-  * Oscillators
-    * Octave Parameter -1 / -1
-  * Filter
-    * Filter 1 Cutoff Envelope Amount = +24
-  * Amplitude Envelope
-    * Release = 60
-  * Filter Envelope
-    * Release = 47
-    * Filter 1 Keytrack Amount = +50%
-    * Filter 1 Cutoff = 15
-  * Oscillators
-    * Detune 0 / 0
-  * Mixer
-    * Wave 1 Level = 100
-    * Wave 2 Level = 0
-Optional:
-  * Filter
-    * Filter 1 Resonance < 110
-    * Filter 1 Resonance = 127 -> Keytracking +100%
-    * Volume / Filter Release < 47
-  * Allocation Mode Monophonic
-== WaveScan-Bass ==
-  * General Settings
-    * Startwave = 0
-    * WaveTable = 46 (//Heavy Fuzz//)
-    * Filter Envelope [000,030,048,008]
-    * Wave 2 Link = YES
-  * Modifier Settings
-    * Mod 1 Source = Filter Envelope
-    * Mod 1 Destination = Wave 1 Position
-    * Amount = +40
-  * (optional)
-    * Try WaveTables
-      * 014
-      * 044
-      * 045
-      * 047
-=== Pads ===
-== Sweep Saw Pad ==
-Two sawtooth waves slightly cross tuned, filtered and amplified with a smooth envelope – simple, boring and effective.
-  * Waves
-    * Startwave = 63 / 63 (sawtooth)
-  * Oscillators
-    * Detune = -6 / +6
-  * Volume Envelope
-    * ADSR [050,060,060,040]
-  * Filter
-    * Type = 12dB Low Pass
-    * Cutoff = 60
-    * Resonance = 40
-    * Keytrack = +50%
-  * Filter Envelope
-    * Cutoff Env Amount = +10 -> Sweep
-    * ADSR [070,070,040,060]
-Optional
-    * Cutoff Env Amount = 0
-    * Env Velocity Amount = +30
-Effect: Chorus
