One Synth Challenge #120: SE PolyMod KX

Created with Xavier Kalensky's SE PolyMod - a lovely retro-style synth.

Dedicated to Japanese anime in the 1980s and poor Ariana's tattoos, I guess - both of which I know very little about.

Polymorphism (OSC 120 SE-PolyMod)

This is my submission to One Synth Challenge #120 PolyMod SE. PolyMod by KX77FREE is an amazing sounding free VA synth, but heavy on CPU.

I don't deserve this synth.
I don't deserve to be able to make music.
Do I even deserve to be? 
Ha - if you knew me well enough!
And yet here we go - undeservedly. 
Everything we have today may be gone tomorrow. 
And yet our lives are held in loving hands.

Undeserved (One Synth Challenge #120 - PolyMod SE - 1st place)

"Fischerinsel (German: [ˈfɪʃɐˌʔɪnzl̩], Fisher Island) is the southern part of the island in the River Spree which was formerly the location of the city of Cölln and is now part of central Berlin. The northern part of the island is known as Museum Island. Fischerinsel is normally said to extend south from Gertraudenstraße and is named for a fishermen's settlement which formerly occupied the southern end of the island. Until the mid-twentieth-century it was a well preserved pre-industrial neighbourhood, and most of the buildings survived World War II, but in the 1960s and 1970s under the German Democratic Republic it was levelled and replaced with a development of residential tower blocks."

Eternally approaching definitive uncertainty. Converging to something that is not really a single thing, but a representative. Asymptotic variance - featuring numerous synthesized oscillators, oscillating in deterministically random ways.

OK, I've been away for a while. 

I wanted to make something simple but effective. Something retro'ish with a twist. Just like this months's synth. I was surprised how good it is in terms of analog modelling (said a man who never heard an analog synth in RL). Than I found a modulation matrix that released a living hell out of it. It has great potential for industrial and noise music for sure. Modulating oscillators with each other can get so extreme that it will create an almost chaotic waveforms. You can even get the noises of your motherboard or videcard, or perhaps any other electronic equipment. And ofcourse there is a possibility to emulate some sorts of old school hardware (in musical ways).

Althrough, there is some stability issues. It crashes my DAW each time I close the project (which is a minor thing but still annoying). And ofcourse there is a whole bunch of quirks, such as wierd mouse movements (thanks MadPsyance) and unintuitive behavior of some components. But I thinks it is pretty useful and deserves a use in commercial mixes. And it's "hardware madness" capability that you can get perhaps only in Modular in real world. I will definately use it in my sound design sessions.

I felt pretty drained after Waverazor. The good thing about SE Polymod is it's much faster to make sounds. However the synth definitely has it's idiosyncrasies - I was having issues with the instances resetting to the default patch when loading (I think it was an issue with the auto-disable setting in FL that I later turned off). The mono settings for the synth don't seem to work correctly so I trimmed my midi so noted didn't overlap. The filter envelope seems to add some strange crackle on the release phase. It took us a while to figure out how to use the LFO. The mod matrix brings the synth to life, although sometimes it seems to spike. Luckily I didn't have issues with crashing, and it seemed to handle lots of mono patches, and a couple poly ones. I had fun, and good luck to the rest of you with your entries!
