5.2 INCOMPLETE PATCHES INVOLVING INDIVIDUAL
FUNCTIONS
These form parts of complete
patches. In
the first
class are patches
whose
output is primarily at audio frequencies and
is
intended
to
provide
a
signal for
further processing and 'packaging' into discrete
events. In the
second class are those patches whose output is
primarily at low
frequencies
and
is intended
to provide interesting
varieties
of
control over
a
separate signal path.
Frequency
Modulation.
Note
the
effects of varying
the
depth of
modulation,
and
the
interaction
between the
control frequency
and
modulation
depth.
Use
this section to catalogue
those
effects
you
find
useful.
Alternate between
AC
and
DC
coupling for
identical signals and
note
the
difference in
the sound.
The
Ring Modulator
enormously exaggerates
slight
differences
in frequency
;
just
try
to
zero-beat
the output of
two
oscillators
by
listening
to them
through
the RM.
Use
this section
to
catalogue settings
you
find useful.
3.
Call tnis
'
timbral
modulation
*
or 'harmonic modulation'
or anything
you
please.
There
is
no word
for
it.
Try it
first
with a
noise
input
to
the VCF
and a
sharply
resonant Q-setting. Be
sure the VCO is in
audio
range and then
open slowly
the control
input
to
the VCF. The
VC02
sine is prewired
don't
neglect others,
and
even
combinations
of
different
waveforms
from
different oscillators.
Use
this
section
to catalogue
settings you
find
useful. And
experiment with
control
by
more than
one oscillator at
once.
