I sounds like a lot of people don't get the maximum benefit out of their
modulars (sorry I stuck the reply on your message Paul). EGs (and LFOs) are
incredible to play in real-time when connected to a sequencer or
arpeggiator. This gives amazing movement to parts. It can also give subtle
changes in feel all the way through complete sound change transformations.
This is a great tool also to use for techno, ambient, trance, dance, etc. I
know a lot of people who do this.
Perhaps you just haven't tried it before??? Or your music is a little more
static that it should be?
There are lots of knobs and jacks and modules I wonder What the hell are
those for? And then when I try it or it is explained to me, it is like a
revalation!
Cheers!
