Partial Perfunctory

This week is definitely an 'oh well this is what it is, out of time and I gots to take care of some other business, upload what ya got' kind of thing. Quicky one take simple thing. So - got these Verbos Electronics modules, and what you're hearing here is one of those dudes, the harmonic oscillator (in the pic it is in the front row far right with the sliders), which is essentially a bank of sine waves(ish) laid out in the harmonic series(ish) which may be addressed physically with sliders or gotten at with control voltage in a few interesting ways. Melody is being driven by another verbos device called the voltage multistage - it can do all kinds of crazy stuff, here it is just jabbering the same 8 notes over and over. Otherwise all that is going on is a couple switches, some attenuation, and quantizing, a little bit of manually shifting the notes coming out of the sequencer this way and that with a pressure points, which I definitely muffed a few places, but ah well. Certainly a good amount of modulation pumped into that osc, via an LFO and a wogglebug. No dedicated eg, and the vca it is going through is just sitting there wide open, the harmonic osc kind of has an independent vca per harmonic thing going on. It is nuts, a lot of fun, and I have a lot to learn about it, as well as all of these awesome verbos modules.

Fun patch job!

Man, you've got the whole Verbose collection or what?!  haha.  Rig is looking good and that osc sounds nice and rich!

No 'or what' about it. That's all of them - quite a few modules left to bring these bad boys in, that 6u case is beginning to feel like a cohesive instrument.
