Ambient Moog Mother 32 Demos by Alastair Wilson

001//Slumber [Ambient] - 2x Mother 32s and Eventide Space

Published on Nov 3, 2017 Alastair Wilson

"A dark, melodic, semi-self-generating modular patch using 2 Mother 32s sent through an Eventide Space hall reverb, using Ableton Live as a tempo source. A slight bit of compression is added to tame some of the more insistent bass surges.

The patch is only semi-random because the notes come from sequences based off the C minor triad; the Assign outputs' random stepped voltages do the rest!

002//Awakening [Melodic] - Mother 32 and Eventide Space

Published on Dec 4, 2017

"This is a melodic, improvised demo of how a single Mother 32 can play a bass line and melody at once, sent through an Eventide Space shimmer reverb, without any other processing or effects. The LFO is used as the bass here.

The idea is that the Assign output can send a clock out pulse on each step of the sequence. This pulse can be changed into a constant voltage: make a 1-note sequence, give it 4 ratchets, and turn the tempo up. Now, whenever the sequence plays, there is a constant voltage output from the Assign output. Attenuate this via the VC Mix knob, and send to the LFO rate. Tune the LFO to the lower of the 2 notes you want, then press play on the sequencer and tune the higher note via the VC Mix knob. Patch an LFO output to the Ext Audio input and mix it with the VCO.

You now have a Mother 32 which can play a bass line and melody at the same time! Stop and start the sequencer to change the bass note.
