Modular Fright Night 2009

"I flipped on the cam whilst recording some spooky sounds to scare the little kiddos on halloween night. Mwa ha haaaaa!

Here's some info on the patch before I forget it:
The main sound features two oscillators that are gettin all tangled and twisted up in some gnarley audio rate frequency modulation- Osc2 sine goes to a VCA CV in, Osc1 saw to said VCA's signal in, and VCA's out to Osc2 FM in. These two gnash each other apart and then, clicking and howling, funnel into an STG Sea Devil diode ladder filter, thru a series of three Cynthia Buchla 292 low pass gate clones, and into a Synthesizers.com Q107 filter. Bandpass out of that filter runs to the final VCA, and the high pass out goes to STG wave folder. A pan/fade module balances the two for instant adhoc control of horror and mayhem.

The obligatory "creepy wind" eminates from a single oscillator FM'd by white noise, fed into a Q150 transistor ladder filter and a COTK C1630 Bode. A pressure sensitive CV ribbon controller modulates the oscillator frequency and filter cutoff.

The whole barrage of sound is orchestrated by a Q119 sequencer running in 3x8 mode with first bank controlling pitch of the oscillators, and 2nd and 3rd banks generating gates for an STG gate delay and three EGs used to modulate the various filters and amps and such in totally eeevil ways, fer sure omigod.

Thanks for stopping by and listening to my ghostly (ghastly?) noises!"
