Congratulations on getting your new MNM! Super super fun machine.
I agree, turning off the filter tracking is essential for getting a much fuller sound. The difference is huge.
Search the internet for ‘Adventure Kid Waveforms’, and download thousands of single-cycle-waveforms to use with the DPRO machines, for free! They can give your MNM an entirely different universe of sound exploration. But you may just want to focus on getting to know what’s already onboard the MNM before going down that rabbit hole
Layering sounds and FX machines can be mind blowing. Not only for complex textures, but also for getting deeper “analogue” feeling sounds.
The onboard effects are not that great, so if you have an external FX unit (I have an Eventide Space reverb) it can add a lot to the sound of the MNM.
Also keep in mind that the MNM can be buggy sometimes. I’ve had it stop working, and spent too much time figuring out that the machine was just frozen. It will happen!
The MNM has so many unique machines and features, it’s really hard to explain or give tips on all of them. Study the manual a lot, and keep in near by - you will need it! Safe to say, you will get lost in this machine for hours and hours and hours! My favorite synth, ever!
