A modular patch

I have been experimenting with a patch on my MOTM modular the last couple of days. I used the following modules:

  • 3 x Oakley VCO
  • 1 x Oakley Multimix
  • 2 x MOTM-390s LFO
  • 1 x MOTM-830 Dual Mode Mixer
  • 1 x CGS Wave Multipliers
  • 1 x Oakley S&H/Slew generator
  • 1 x Oakley Equinoxe phaser
  • 1 x Oakley Noise

Here is a description of my patch in MPN.

VCO1.Control[Coarse tune=5]
VCO2.Control[Coarse tune=5]
VCO3.Control[Coarse tune=5]
Connect
[VCO1.Triangle -> Multimix.In1,
VCO2.Triangle -> Multimix.In2,
VCO3.Triangle -> Multimix.In3]

Multimix.Control[(Level1, Level2, Level3)=+5]
Connect[Multimix.Out3/mix -> WaveMultipliers.Square In]

MOTM-390a.Control[Rate-A=1.5, Rate=8.5]
Connect
[MOTM-390a.SQR -> S&H/Slew.Rising,
Noise.White Noise -> S&H/Slew.Hold In]

S&H/Slew.Control[Restriction=3, Slew Rate=2, Mode=Sample]
Connect[S&H/Slew.Hold Out -> WaveMultipliers.Fold CV]

MOTM-390b.Control[Rate-A=, Rate=2, FM=6]
Connect
[MOTM-390b.TRI A -> MOTM-390b.FM In,
MOTM-390b.Sine -> WaveMultipliers.Offset CV]

WaveMultipliers.Control
[Square In=4.5,
Fold-5,
Fold CV=8.5,
Offset=5,
Offset CV=3.5]
Connect
[WaveMultipliers.Fold Out -> Multiples.In1,
Multiples.Out1A -> MOTM-830.In4,
Multiples,Out1B -> Equinoxe.Audio In]

Equinoxe.Control
[Frequency=6.5,
Emphasis=8,
Modulation Depth=7.5,
LFO Rate=1]
Connect[Equinoxe.Audio Out -> MOTM-830.In5]

MOTM-830.Control
[In4=8,
In5=8,
Bias=Off]
Connect[MOTM-830.Out2 -> Headphones/Speakers]

The goal was to create a cyclic ever changing patch. I’m not completely satisfied yet so I will keep tweaking this patch.

Below you can listen to a recording of this patch.
