When Do You Actually Need a Buffered Multiple? | Learning Modular

http://learningmodular.com/when-do-you-actually-need-a-buffered-multiple

When Do You Actually Need a Buffered Multiple? Jan 12, 2017. A perennial question among modular. Synthesists is “do I really need a buffered multiple. To connect to my oscillators? Rdquo; The correct answer is “it depends” because there’s so many variables with the way different modules were designed. I figured it was time to flesh out those details so it didn’t seem like so much voodoo. In simple terms, every. Target=" blank" control voltage. Source has an output impedance. A Voltage Controlled Amplifie...

Patching Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) with Arturia Modular V. Mar 5, 2017. I recently released a course on Lynda.com and LinkedIn Learning on how to use the Arturia Modular V software synth, which is modeled on the old Moog modular systems. Here I show how to create a typical PWM (pulse width modulation) patch, as well as describe some of the differences in using a Moog modular or the Modular V software compared to a typical Eurorack system. Your First Modular Synthesizer Patch, Using Arturia Modular V.

Jul 31, 2016. One way to create more complex waveforms (and therefore, harmonics) than traditionally supplied by oscillators is to use one oscillator to modulate the frequency of another. In this article I’ll describe how to set up an FM (frequency modulation) patch, and include a movie from my Learn Modular Synthesis course that demonstrates the exponential flavor of FM. Choosing Utility Mixers for Your Modular. Nov 27, 2015. Patching Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) with Arturia Modular V.

Second Oscillator, or Waveform Animator? Jan 1, 2017. Synths – such as the popular Moog Mother-32. Ndash; have just one. VCO [Voltage Controlled Oscillator]. They usually feature a square wave. Width animation, but if you want to use the sawtooth. Instead, the sound can be rather static unless you put a lot of work into animating the filter. Therefore, a common addition to a semi- modular. Is a second oscillator. This allows you to create the classic detuned, chorused sound, as well as tune. I used one c...
