Here is a little patch I put together on my eurorack modular synthesizer. The sounds you hear are a one shot performance recorded into a single stereo track. It was mastered a bit using vsts in ableton to give it a little extra polish. This one is a little weird but I still like it a lot and hope you do to.
This piece prominently features Mutable Instruments Rings and Braids(in vowel mode) and the Make Noise Mysteron. The Bass drum is a Hexinverter Mutant Bass Drum. The mutant bass drum is based on the bass drum circuit in an 808 however its been modified with a vactrol to allow control over the pitch. Vactrols use LEDs and light depend resistors sealed together in a light tight package to create what is essentially a voltage controlled resistor. Each vactrol has a unique response due to the difference in manufacturing of the leds, however this response is often "goey" what this means is its slow and takes a second for the parameter to catch up with the control. This can be useful for creating interesting exponential pitch envelopes on the mutant bass drum by simply sending a short burst of voltage, often refereed to as a trigger or gate. The mutant bass drum is a great module however its an odd number of hp... which means I will need to build or buy another odd hp module for the row I have it in.
