Subject: mod wheel madness

From: "spaceanimals" <alciere@...>
Date: 2002-04-25

I wiped out preset 26 and built a sync lead on scene 1. Later after
messing around and not knowing what I was doing, I got a great fuzzed
out organ tone on scene 2. Always believing that too much of
everything is just enough, I layered the sounds. So the Spaceanimals
jammed the other day and I'm playing this patch noodling with the mod
wheel and getting this real nice phase shifted sound, with the note
slightly out of tune when I first bring up the wheel, but going back
into tune as the wheel goes up. It sounds almost like I'm morphing
between the sounds, but only only one scene button is pushed. So I
check the matrix for both scenes. You know what the mod wheel is
asigned too? Nothing! Not only that, but both scenes are tuned
exactly the same so if somehow I'm morphing the scenes, they
shouldn't be out of tune.

I set all four free egs to control the fine tune parameters, 1 and
two covering the oscillators in scene one, and 3 and 4 covering the
oscillators on scene two. A nice very subtle effect the tuning
drifting-only a few cents just like the old analog beasts.
