new member here with a question

2001-04-05 by John Parks

Hello everyone.  I am a newbie here in the true sense of
the word.  Not only am I new to this list but to Synthesis
in general.  I have never played around with modular synths
before but I have always loved the music they made.  This
summer I hope to be putting together my first modular synth
from Synthesis Technology.  

So on to my question.  (Keep in mind I am very new to all
this and I am still learning all the terminology.)

I was wondering if there was a way to create a random gated
tremelo effect.  Something that just cuts on and off.  The
best way I can explain it is to think of a light bulb that
is flickering on and off at random.  There is no set
pattern.  Is there a way to accomplish this using MOTM
modules?  I noticed that there isn't a square wave on the
LFO but there is a pulse wave.  Could you somehow randomly
very the pulse width and the speed at which those changes
take place and then feed this into a VCA to produce the
gated tremelo effect?  How would you go about patching this
up if its possible?

Everyone have a pleasent day,
John Parks
