A Patch A Day, No. 8

Published on May 16, 2013 hamiltonulmer·8 videos

Those are some close-up wobbly knobs...

"Pressed for time, & probably more technical than musical patch - I wanted to direct the Quadra EOC's into each other's TRIG, thereby creating a poor man's four-stage sequencer, with the duration of each stage is determined by the end of the slope. The Quadra pings itself in a circle.

Sadly I am very pressed for time on this patch today, so it is enough that I finished the video at all.

The first channel is just the Quadra itself snapping hard, making a simple blippy kick. The second channel has a bit of fm-modulated VCO A sine of the DPO, fluttering according to the Graphic Sequencer. The third channel hits a ring-mod'd DPO VCO B. Finally, the fourth channel uses the SUM output of two quick-oscillating MATHS, tuned in major 2nds from each other.

Some of this was motivated by my recent drone patch, using Quadra and Maths as dedicated oscillators. Quadra can provide a decent snap of a kick, and of course so can Maths. Pretty excellent.

(I hope I have the order of these right - I am away from the synth and can't verify by actually watching the video again.)"
