Some more Woggle Bug tips

2007-10-17 by Grant Richter

I have been meaning to post this.

The "Woggle CV" output jack can produce audio rate tones when the "Woggle Time" setting 
is small or zero.

At small settings of "Woggle Time", the Woggle CV ouput produces a decaying sinusoid in 
the audible range. If you lowpass filter it, you can get the plucked bass tones heard in the 
original Woggle Bug demo.

At zero settings, the Woggle CV will oscillate strangely and produce harsh tones which 
vary with the settings of the other controls.

So the Woggle CV outputs at some settings can be used as the 9th and 10th audio outputs 
from the module.

The correspondence between the Model 265 Source of Uncertainty functions and the 
identical Woggle Bug functions:

265 SOU label                                      Woggle Bug label

Random Voltage Outputs                      Smooth CVs
Probable Rate of Change controls         LFO Rate controls
Pob. Rate of Change Ext. jack               Rate input jack
Stored Random Voltage Outputs          Step CVs
Pulse Inputs                                         Step CV Clock inputs
Correlation Controls                            Clustering controls

The original Model 265 Source of Uncertainty functions are all present and identical in the 
Woggle Bug but have been enhanced by the addition of:

Smooth Range
Woggle Range
Woggle Time
Out 1 and 2
Disturb CV 1 and 2
Child Tones 3 and 4
LFO outputs
Smooth Tone outputs
Woggled Tone outputs
Woggled CV outputs

Have Fun!
