020//Bleed For Me - Mother 32 using Maths as a waveshaper


Published on Apr 14, 2018 Alastair Wilson

"A semi-self-generating modular patch using a Moog Mother 32 and a Maths module, sent through an Eventide Space shimmer reverb and an Eventide Timefactor on reverse delay setting. No other processing has been applied.

Maths can act as a slew limiter for CV, to smooth out stepped voltages. However, if you patch a saw wave into the input of channel 1 or 4, you can use Maths as a very crude filter, smoothing out the sharp corners of the saw wave - this is what's happening in the patch. All changes in timbre of the plucks is Maths being modulated while slew limiting the saw wave. It sometimes sounds filtered, sometimes like a guitar string, sometimes like a hard sync effect, and sometimes like a phaser... But nothing is actually modulating the Mother 32's filter cutoff except for the pluck envelope!

I made this video because Maths is a great choice for a first module to accompany the Mother 32, and I often underuse it. It's so good that despite my fairly small setup, I have a second Maths in another case!
