Does it have to sound like a Hammond?<br>
<br>
I wouldn't even shoot for the "organ" sound, but that's a cool idea
of yours. Who decides which harmonics are going to be available? Is
it all just math?<br>

Ian/Elain has an idea that combines several branches from
various thoughts bouncing around and kinda crashing together in
a messy heap. I blame my tenure at Art School for this design
process.

<div>I've always wanted a modular since I first stumbled upon
this hobby. Lack of space, time, or money has always stopped
me. I've also always wanted an organ. Mostly a lack of consent
from the significant other and space has quashed that one.</div>

<div>So here we go again. I have Tom Wiltshire's amazing little
NoteDiv chips and things keep not panning out for the stand
alone paraphonic synth. </div>

</div>
<div>I keep thinking about how the Hammond and the string synths
have discrete chunks that make up the whole thing. tone
generator, filters, vibrato, chorus, etc. So why isn't there a
top octave tone generator module yet? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think it would be interesting to have the 9 different
"drawbars" on separate outputs so each harmonic could be
processed separately and a mixed output for the slightly more
traditional sound. Throw in a MIDI input to simplify
controlling the thing. Trigger and Gate outputs. Maybe
something to even select the harmonics that get switched to
the outputs (more fifths, higher/lower octaves). CV inputs to
automate the "drawbars" that go to the mixed output. Some sort
of randomizing option would be cool too.</div>

<div>As always, thoughts and criticisms welcome. </div>
