Patching a little two-voice modular polysynth

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I thought someone might find this interesting!</p> <p>I have a <a href="https://www.modulargrid.net/e/hexinverter-Electronique-mutant-brain">Hex Inverter Mutant Brain</a> MIDI&gt;CV module and you can reprogram it, with sysex midi messages, to behave differently. I set mine to send the first key press pitch and gate to CV A and Gate 1 and the second key press to CV B and Gate 2, then it cycles back to the CV A. </p> <p>It's patched so the CVs are running into each of my <a href="https://www.modulargrid.net/e/endorphin-es-furthrrrr-generator">Furthrrr Generator</a>'s dual (+synced) oscillators and the gates are running into two envelopes on <a href="https://www.modulargrid.net/e/mutable-instruments-stages">Stages</a>. It means that when playing the attached keyboard, I have two voices (as long as I don't play faster than my envelopes!) which makes for a really nice and unusually big sound.</p> <p>I realise this is pretty simple but I spent such a long time battling with a broken USB&gt;MIDI cable that eventually sending the sysex config felt like quite an achievement. It's also something I've been thinking about for a while so I thought someone else might be having similar thoughts and enjoy reading.</p> <p>Next experiment will be using four notes for four voices, but that will mean including a Dixie II+ and Plaits, so will probably start to sound quite unusual!</p> <p>Simple patch example here (camera phone, sorry!): <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/B19TeBIhOgj/">https://www.instagram.com/p/B19TeBIhOgj/</a></p> <p>(Both VCOs meet their respective envelopes in a VCA, mix in Planar, and are run through a VCF).</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/stevierar"> /u/stevierar </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/czamzd/patching_a_little_twovoice_modular_polysynth/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/czamzd/patching_a_little_twovoice_modular_polysynth/">[comments]</a></span>
