Patch Notes:

001- Bandpass with Filter FM from VCO1. Removing the white patch cable from the “Mix Out” switches to Low Pass Filter

002- Velocity to Filter Cutoff (Bandpass). Random velocities per note sent from Ableton for movement “Mix Out” unplugged switches to Low Pass Filter

003 - Dual Saw’s from both VCO’s with both levels turned up to 100%. This gives some amazing saturation and changes the way the resonance interacts with the filter. Slight Filter FM from VCO1

004 - Heavily overdriven Lead / Bass from both the VCO Levels and the master Drive control

005 - Velocity to Filter Cutoff- carefully set in Ableton to make melodic timbres depending on the amount via Filter “FM1” control. Filter FM from VCO2, and also VCO1 FM from VCO2. Maximum resonance

006 - This was not multi-tracked, and no other drum sounds were used. This is all just one Malevolent! “Output” is patched into “Aux Input” and turned up to max value- Another cool way to overdrive the synth. Velocity is controlling Filter Cutoff- So with a combination of Low and High MIDI notes, you are able to make Kick Drum / Percussion sequenced. VCO1 is set to Triangle, and is getting FM via VCO2

007 - LFO Square wave modulating the pitch of VCO1 for a slight “Chip Tune” octave effect. Pitch Envelope of VCO2 being tweaked for ‘Riser’ kind of sound

008 - A simple, fat lead sound with Square / Saw waveforms selected on both VCO’s. VCO1 FM via VCO2 for some additional grit and bite. Medium Overdrive setting with Both oscillators at max to also overdrive the mixer section.

009 - “Drone” mode FM fun with Bandpass filter. VCO1 FM via VCO2, and Filter FM via VCO1. This simple patching can lead to some endless sound FX possibilities.

010 - Overdriving the oscillators at max into the mixer with VCO2 tuned ~19 semitones above VCO1. Creates some wonderful harmonics that sound a bit more “Wavetable” than an analog synth. Simple yet amazing sounding patch. Outro is all noise and resonance"
