Hi !
Yes, sure that will work and lead to good music. There are two
things
missing in your setup, which could be quite interesting : a
trigger sequencer
and a trigger divider. And some logical devices like NOT, XOR,
AND etc.
would be useful.
These devices are build up easily and will lead to very complex
sequences.
Use one LFO for triggering all other devices (Analog seq, Trig.
seq, divider a.s.o)
You can trigger not only rythm instruments, like kick, hihat
snare etc., but
also sounds. One trigger sequencer for the VCA, and two other
trig.seqs
for example for VCO. Then you can create three distinct
frequencies in a
rythmic pattern. With VC switches, connected to a trigger
divider (1/32), you even
can switch two or more pattern after, lets say, each 4 whole
notes.
And so on, and so on. I do this, and : lot of fun !
