MOTM

At

www.synthtech.com/demo

you will see a 3.5MB file called wavewarpcity.mp3

This is a MiniWave, sequenced with a UEG (and some t.c. electronic M3000
delay). As the sequence....errr...sequences
we are turning knobs and adding CVs to a R&D module called the WaveWarper.
This is the replacement for
the Ring Mod section of the '110.

Except it can do MUCH more. It's still in R (not even into D) with wires
hanging out all over the bench. But here
is a test. The patch/wave out does not change. There is no filtering. The
buzzes/overdrives/harmonics all
from the WaveWarper.

No, it's not like Serge's, or Tony Allgoood's. Uses an entirely new
log/anti-log concept borrowed from 1965 analog
computers. MOTM-ized, of course :) Break out your trig books!

h3y all,
overslept so it feels quite early an' me words feel lackin'.  suffice 
it to say, i like *very* much.
have a good one...
peace,
doc

The demo is excellent - very interesting changes going on.  I have Klipsh
THX speakers on my PC so I could hear much of the wave warping through the
delay.  However, it would be nice to have a version sans effects to better
hear what is going on.  Are the waves from the MiniWave changing as well?
If so, maybe a demo using the 300 saw would further isolate the WaveWarper's
sound.

So, is this the mystery waveshaper module that was hinted at a while ago?
If so, I'm wondering what is the *dreaded* rotary switch for.

gotta get me a UEG

I'll try that later. The first attempts were boring :)

No. That's all WaveWarper.

Yes. I was doing a Mac version (in MetaSynth) but my Mac croaked. So, now
it's breadboard time.
There is a 3-position rotary switch to selct 3 different "power series
expansions". Go get out your
trig/calc book and look at Taylor, McLauren and Cauer series, Euler's
Identity, and such.

So let me ask... is the module order

UEG -> VCO -> Miniwave -> Mystery Thingie -> M3000
                  ^
                  |
                 UEG

If so that is some pretty amazing stuff.

This above is correct. The SAW out of the VCO 'scans' the MiniWave. There is
a MOTM-800 into the Thingy
doing the VCA portion (it does make a dandy VCA, unexpectedly).

Excellent!  Do I hear RR?

Will this be a standalone module or wrapped into the next 110?  If 
standalone, 1U?

Funny you should say that. I have my Oakley Logger sat right next to my
Serge Wavemultiplier clone on my modular. Both were mainly attempts at
prospective new modules back in the early Autumn of last year. The Serge
was more immediate than my version of the Log processor, so I never got
any further with it. But it was DC stable enough to use as master
control for linear VCOs too. And yes, it worked well as VCA, and ring
mod too.

But I had to do all my log processing with additional modules, the
Logger was just an anti-log and log circuit on a module. Even if you
didn't know about the principles behind working with logs, it still
ended up as a fun module.

BTW: The THAT corp VCAs work by adding logs. Amazing that they can sound
so good.

Not that old dbx multiplier cell anymore ?

I hope it doesn't take long to go into P and then start to S.
