MOTM

Has anyone ever created any good percussion patches with their MOTM? I
mean anything from snares, hh, basses, tom-toms, etc.... Care to share any
patches?
            
                        cheers,
                        John

First post for me, so forgive me if it screws up!!!!

Try Sound On Sound Magazine.  They're running a series of articles on 
synthesizing Drum Sounds, including analyzing the sound itself and 
mapping this to analog synthesis.

And if you cant get the mag,  just go to this URL for the articles.  
There's some interesting stuff, not just limited to drum sounds...

Hi John.
run your MOTM 100 white noise to the motm 420 in HP mode , then to the VCA
and set the 800 to control the VCA ,it would create the basic hi-hat and
snare's.
if you would use two 300 vco's sine out using FM at high frequency would
yelled a very good source instead of using the 100 as the noise source.
also if you patch the 800 to the vca and to the FM inputs in the 300 you
would get  much more "punch" to the sound.
the basic rule (from my experience) about creating percussion is to use ONLY
sine waves.
sine waves are available from any of the MOTM vcf and from the MOTM-300 vco.

hope it help

I put up an audio snippet of MOTM hi-hats and something similar to a kettle 
drum some time ago and I thought I described the FM techniques for doing 
them.  Perhaps the archives still have my post.  The audio is no longer up in 
my ftp space though.  I'm in the process of clearing files off of AOL, so if 
you want to hear some FM techiques applied to doing Cymbals or the low notes 
on a Piano, get the MP3's of my Roland JP-8080 virtual analog doing them now, 
before they disappear.  Links below.  Note that to get cymbals that sound as 
huge as the cymbal crash at the end of my cymbal audio snippet, I needed to 
use the complete polyphony of the JP-8080, that's two different stacked 
sounds x 5 voices spread apart on the keyboard.  Anything I've tried on the 
MOTM sounds wimpy in comparison, and I've tried a lot, including feedback 
loops through ring modulators hoping to get a huge spectrum of metalic sound 
(doesn't work), two levels deep of FM, and so on.
