Modulate This Patch Lab

"Emits a Photon" - Free Camel Audio Alchemy Patch by Mark Mosher

 

What does it sound like when you mangle the sound of a florescent light being switched on with granular syntheis? "Emits a Photon" is the answer - a free granular synthesis patch for Camel Audio Alchemy. This sample was recorded in my dorm at Electro-Music 2010 Festival. Listen to the audio demo for some notes on how I created this patch. Modwheel controls filter.

To install:

• In your Alchemy\Presets folder create a sub-folder called "Modulate This Patch Lab"
• Download patchlab_emits_a_photon.zip
• Unzip all files into the new folder
• From Alchemy click "File->Load" then select "Emits a Photon MM.acp" and click "Open"

Waldorf Largo - Dolphin Jump Gate

I’m very excited to start working with Waldorf Largo! It's shares 98% of it's architecture with Blofeld so it's been great experience to work with the architecture in soft synth form. I’ve actually created quite a few patches and thought I’d share one of my more crazy atmospheric patches called “Dolphin Jump Gate” as it shows off the awesome comb filter and FM  on the Largo.

I have the filters setup in “Serial” mode. Filter 1 is a comb filter which colors the sound and Filter 2 is low pass to control brightness.

Modulate Notes:

• Velocity controls Filter 2’s envelope velocity. Since filter 2 is set to a high-pass filter there more velocity you play with the brighter the overall sound.
• Mod Wheel controls intensity of LFO1 which modulates Cutoff for Filter 1. Sweeping modulation cause a shearing effect. Mod Wheel also modulates Filter 1 panning.

Try playing some chords to create sub-harmonic “beating” effect. Turn the FM paramer up for Oscillator 3 to get even more sparkle.
