Re: Basic patching 101

2008-09-19 by madrayken

Many thanks. I've used the TimewArp2600 emulator, and this seems to 
match - the main surprise was the use of mults (semi-modulars tend to 
hide a lot of this stuff, of course).

my cv buffer they are then running out to the mixer module which then

envelope is driveing both vca,s then i use the other envelope to 
drive the filter cv input this is a pretty basic patch but i do 
remember when i first started with the modular looking at it and 
thinking ..huh.!!! and to be honest i think as they grow you always 
will thats half the fun ...you might try to download an arp 2600
