Subject: RE: [motm] Module Idea -- Harmonic Bias Source

From: "Tkacs, Ken" <ken.tkacs@...>

You know, I kept debating getting the Nord modular in my "starved for
modular" days (pre 9/99), but now that I've found MOTM and am building a
real, physical one, I'm pretty committed to that. I really like turning
knobs and stringing patchcords all over the place.

Not that the two are exclusionary because they're different enough to be two
separate beasts, but I only have $$$ to push into one direction or the
other. I'd rather keep pushing for new MOTM modules, even though that
doesn't have the "instant gratification" factor of just going to Sam Ash and
grabbing something else.

You know why I didn't buy a Nord Modular when it came out? I was interested
in the idea, but I was waiting for the "super" version. Instead, years
later, they came out with the "mini" version, so they seem to actually be
going in the opposite direction from what I'm looking for.

>>I'm really interested in working with the harmonic series in
pseudo additive synthesis fashion. With a module like this, these very
important relationships could be easily dialed in.<<

Not that I want to steer business away from MOTM for this, but it sounds
like
you need the Nord Modular. They even have a Sinewave oscillator bank just
for doing additive synthesis.
