Stone Halls: Babel/Triphase/HSO/Inertia

video upload by New Systems Instruments

"Patch Notes: I'm going to make a video about the patch soon (trying something new). But here's some quick notes. Babel is the heart of this piece. Everything is going into it and modulating each other. Mixing is just the most basic form of modulation, so think of this as advanced mixing. There's three voices: two Triphase Oscillators and a Harmonic Shift Oscillator. One of the Triphases is droning. The HSO is doing the lower voice and the other Triphase the upper. Inertia is detecting the variation in amplitude and exaggerating it with momentum, then feeding that back to change the timbre of the Triphases as well as the center for Babel's modulation. Now just what all of that means...that'll be the subject of the next video.

Just a note: I get frustrated making Eurorack videos where the music ends up secondary to the content, but you need music to explain the modules. So the solution (hindsight is duh) is to just separate these, and give patches two videos. Or at least, I'm hoping that works out the way I'm imagining.
