Just playing around a bit.

E352 -> Ripples 1 bpf -> Bastl Skis -> Desmodus Versio

Stages as clock and providing multiple modulations: Ripples FM; DV Tone, Density, Size.

variation on previous, but now with morphagene and VCV rack. Basal providing some bass.

Simple techno sketch with four parts: Kick, Hats, Bassline, and Pad. I invite advice for how to build this into a proper piece of music. The "performance" consists bringing the parts in and out and then a bunch of fiddling with the bass voice using the mouse.  Kick is the simplest: Vult Knock into VCV VCF to roll off the highs in the transient and add a bit of drive.  Hats are made using the Prok HH, with an 8-step sequencer controlling A, B, and level. This goes into a clocked delay with some filters inside the feedback path(Airwindows Distance 2 and dBiz QuePasa).   The bass is sequenced by Vult Lapsus into JW GridSeq, which I have to say is a wonderful way to generate cool sequences. The voice is two Instruo Neoni modules, one modulating the other, then into a BPF with distortion (Vult Ferox) then chorus (Flag Electric Ensemble).   Pad is made by sampling a minute-long sample of foggy pads. The sample was made with Marbles, docB's Pad2, Kammerl Spectral Clouds, and normal Clouds granular, plus a lot of reverb. This sample is loaded into Voxglitch Grain Engine MK2, with sample position sequenced using the sum of two Turing machines (Grayscale Permutation) and some added noise for jitter. This is fed into a HPF (Vult Freak in Ferox mode) which effectively "side-chains" the pad to the kick: an envelope raises the cutoff and cuts the drive. I also add crackle and stereo width by modulating the cutoff with a bit of noise. From the filter it goes to a proper side-chain compressor so that it ducks behind the bassline.

Persuading Incitatus

crackling noise into Clouds in Resonestor mode, then electus versio. This goes to main mix and to qu bit aurora, which goes to the main mix and back to Clouds.

Created in VCV Rack.

Modal Resonator (aka Mutable Instruments Elements) is the only sound source for this patch. It's triggered by a square LFO, which serves as the master clock for the patch. The clock is divided by a factor of 3, which serves as the clock for Tidal Modulator 2 (aka Mutable Instruments Tides 2) in "different frequencies" mode. The sum of the four outputs of Tides go into the Strength input of Elements, and that is the core of the patch. 

Because Tides is clocked against the triggers to elements, the result is a meter-like structure of repetitive patterns. All of the knobs on Tides create interesting variation in the resulting rhythm. 

Apply delay (also clocked) and reverb, add modulation to everything, and Bob's your uncle.

Solo for modal resonator 1

Complex modulation on a simple signal path. Two Bleak oscillators, mixed, into two parallel VCFs, panned and mixed, into delay, reverb. The modulation is just three LFO's all FM'ing and AM'ing each other.
