Not for the Impatient

video upload by Todd Barton

"Exploring and discovering the different timbres and textures that evolve from slowly increasing and decreasing the FM Index knob. Modules used the Soundfreak EMS Dual Filter/Oscillator and the Dual Ring Modulator. What you hear here is the dry signal. A version with Plate/Spring reverb on my SoundCloud here: / not-for-the-impatient" Kind of interesting if you play both slightly out of sync at the same time.

SF EMS Matrix
