Arturia MOOG Modular V Patch and Demos

"These screen shots and description show how I used an instance of Arturia's Moog Modular V version 2.0 software synthesiser to produce an accompanyment to an audio recording of drumming. In the Sonar 3 screenshot you can see the waveform of the audio recording of drums. In the MMV screenshots you can see how I wired the patch. Accompanying the screenshots are notes to clarify connections not obvious in the pictures. At the bottom of this page are links to audio recordings produced by this Sonar/MMV combination."

Hallo John,

KORG MS03 Pitch to Analog CV

via this auction

Details:
"KORG MS-03: Identical to the MS-20's "External Signal Processor"
This amazing little device translates audio into voltage to control both Hz/V (Korg, Yamaha) and V/Oct (Roland, Moog, Octave, Arp, etc.) analog synths. What's more, it outputs positive and negative gate signals, ENV follower voltage, and has built-in portamento. I used it to make automatic bass lines from drum machine beats and to sweep a Frostwave Resonator filter from the envelope follower. For more in-depth reading on the MS-03's functions, the manual can be found here. The item functions perfectly and runs on US voltage. I have tested it on a Roland SH-2 and a Yamaha CS-15."
