I have a few sampled banks of the MOTM oscillators coming in directly from
my Kyma. I use a converted mult as my patch bay. The sampled oscillator idea
works fine for things like polyphonic pads and sustained tones (many notes
through the same filter). Larry is right in the fact that you do have to
sample every note to get good quality. However that's just a bit more HD
space these days. Also long samples are to prefer (45s or more).
Since I have way more filters and envelopes than oscillators, it's a way for
me to get more out of my rig at the same time.
In general I find the MOTM filters work very well with digital material.
Many times I use MOTM filters as an insert inside my Kyma patches, instead
of a digital filter. This by itself packs more life and richer tone to the
sound, especially when the filter is within the patch, and not just at the
end of the chain.
Another interesting marriage is digital noise sources through MOTM. Say ex
sampled breaths or winds. Sneak it into your next pad and you'll feel that
hybrid sound pop right out!
