"1 Frame Demo Sounds
Some studio explorations using a BugModular 1Frame System along with a Kenton Midi-to-CV unit.
How things change - a few years back I had almost no interest in playing my modular designs in 'traditional' (//keyboard) manners, but by indulging in more studio play lately I've really come around to it. Here I use a little controller keyboard and then the powerful M185 Step Sequencer software from Defective Records (highly recommended!) to drive a synth-voice setup with two oscillators.
The 1Frame consists of:
CTL2 Joystick - versatile modulation/control
ENV1 Attack / Decay - your basic Envelope source
2 x SYN2B Quadrature VCO - strange to base a system on Sine VCOs! But the Lin FM on these is just fantastic and it is great having the counting/tuning dial for fine pitch adjustments on-the-fly. Tracking is *excellent*!
DD2 - LFO/DCMixer - a very useful little utility
PRC5 Wavefolder - harmonic creation! Add some grunt - but you can also use it as a VCA
PRC3A SV Filter - lush harmonic removals!
DD1 RingMod/LPG - two different forms of VCA - one fast and invertable, the other vactrol slow gloop.
UTL2 Output Mix - basic three channel output to the wider world
1 x Frame + MiniPower"
