Throughout the course of our daily lives there is a continuous influx of aural stimulation. We naturally filter out many of these distractions in order to remain focused on the task in front of us. This patchable asks you to turn off those filters and listen to the droning sounds around you. Pay attention to distant white noise hum of a highway, the sound of a refrigerator condenser or your own breath. Let these long, unceasing noises be the inspiration for your next patchable.
THE CHALLENGE

Create a drone patch inspired by the everday sounds around you. There is no limit on modules or external gear used. Simply that the sounds your create should be classifiable as drones.

My Patch Notes:
I'm playing the two oscillators on the Pittsburgh SV-1 with Pressure Points. Each oscillator receiving its own CV from rows one and two of the Pressure Points.  Before CV reaches the input on the oscillators, I have them going through channels 1 and 4 of Maths for some slew/portamento.  Also, row three of Pressure Points is being split to modulate the both-rise/fall input of channels 1 and 4 of Maths to fine tune the slew for each pad of the Pressure Points. Also I have oscillator 2 of the Pittsburgh FM-ing oscillator 1.

The Pittsburgh oscillators are being mixed with noise from sample and hold from the SV-1 and noise out of the Telharmonic. Sample and hold Noise is going through the SV-1's filter, and the Telharmonic noise is going through a Pittsburgh LPG in filter mode. The Degree and flux on the Telharmonic are being modulated by the pitch CV and velocity CV of the DFAM (no noise is coming from the DFAM, just using its sequencer for modulation)

The two noise Sources as well as the two Pittsburgh oscillators are all being mixed to a single output and going through a Pittsburgh Binary filter before going to a Make Noise Mimeophon the Mutable Instruments clouds. Neither the Mimeophon or Clouds have any modulation going to it.

All 8 oscillators on the Dreadbox Antiphon are going. 2 oscillators are being used for modulation. An audio rate oscillator is modulating an the VCA and an (attenuated) LFO is modulation global pitch CV. This LFO is also modulating filter cutoff for the the noise from the Pittsburgh Sample and Hold.

All filter cutoffs were being played by hand with the exception of the SV-1 noise's filter which was a combination of CV and playing by hand.

Finally I have the output from a 4MS Spectral Multiband Resonator as a sound source just kind of droning away as the low-ish end rumble.

Soundtrack to the SV-1b Introduction Video 
Written and Performed by Richard Nicol on the SV-1b Synthesizer

The original Lifeforms SV-1 eurorack format synthesizer module is legendary for its deep, analog sounds capable of pumping out everything from roaring bass and cutting leads to absolute chaos. The SV-1b shares this same bold, powerful core while fine tuning the details. We have made a countless number of small tweaks and adjustments to the original SV-1 synthesis engine to improve the stability and functionality of the SV-1b. The sound is what matters, and this is still the East Coast analog monster to beat.

A Red Sun Rises [SV - 1b Soundtrack]

This is the Matriarch running through an Avalanche Run V2 in stereo.

I was going to name it "The Mother Of All Earthquakes", referring to both the Matriarch and Earthquaker pedal, but then I decided to google that and the top hit was Zechariah 14:3,4 which contains the line:

"And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives"

The music itself feels more like a landscape piece until the earthquake at the end so this title felt a lot more poignant.

Zech 14:3,4 
(The Mother of all Earthquakes)
Then the LORD will go forth
And fight against those nations,
As He fights in the day of battle.
And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.

On The Mount Of Olives
