Re: OT General Synthesis Questions

This is a cool way to impart musicality into your patches.  Some of 
my favorite intruments can be very voice-like: violin, guitar, etc.

The 410 has 3 filters tuned to vocal formant ranges.  Listen to the 
(completely strange) free-running patch that Robert Rich did on the 
news section of Paul's site.  Very vocal, if somewhat demented.

The MiniWave has a bank of vocal formants (bank 8) and I've played 
around with switching these under CV for vocal effects.

For lots of harmonic content, mix both saw and square and tweak the 
PWM under CV.  Add a second VCO slightly detuned for more, and a 
little 120 for even more.  Filters in series then help to shape the 
sound.
