MOTM

Try this link to the Wiard Mini-Wave manual for those interested...

http://www.wiard.com/Grants%201200/MiniWave/MiniManual.html

I found this link on accident searching for information on "Timbre 
Modulators". I have a circuit design in my Barry Klein schematic book. Does 
anybody know of this design and if it is good to build? Will MOTM have a 
timbre modulator? What is the Oakley Wave Folder in comparison?
How many out ther have built the Wave Folder?

TIMBRE MODULATOR!!! I need information, can anybody help me?

hello all,

i have the Oakley Wavefolder, and i absolutely love it (Tony assures me it
can also be used as an envelope follower - but what a waste...)
when i first plugged it in, i likened it to an Eventide Omnipressor for
savage VCA action on drumloops, i've also used it for more subtle stuff, but
it is usually the first port of call for anything coming out of my sampler
(modulated by an envelope follower of course...)

anymore questions - just give me a private email
cheers

thomas,
i`m sorry to say that the klein book is one that i don`t have so i`m not sure 
what timbre modulator he presents there.  from following "electronotes" and 
"polyphony" from years gone by, i know that there is certainly an assortment 
of designs to consider. IMHO,  ANY of them  would be a good starting addition 
to a modular synth just to open up a different world of timbre`s beyond those 
available from filter manipulations.  years back, when i had a serge system, 
i was very pleased with their wave multiplier module. currently, from the 
evil brand "d" system, i have both of their wave processing modules. i use 
them both and they do sound very different from each other ( one is basically 
a v.c. clipper, the other does some more complex transformations on 
waveforms, also under v.c. ). they were certainly very worthwhile additions 
to my modular.  i think it would be interesting to see what might spring from 
m.o.t.m. in this area ! still, the time delay might be too great for the 
anxious to wait..... in that vein, i`ve heard good things from other folks on 
the list about oakley stuff. my guess is that getting his wave folder to add 
to a system is a very safe decision to make.
best,
dave v.
