101 patch ideas?

2009-10-11 by patchdub1972

hi all.  i built a 101 and sort of get it. but am hoping some folks out there could pass on some tricks as to how to get more out of it.  in particular the s&h part.  i have a few vco, lfos, filters, and vcas.  any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks
-patch

also what do you use the - out of an eg for?

some quick ideas that most people know about and that I explain poorly :)

SUPERSAW

Noise --> Slew limiter or Lowpass filter or "Slow" noise--> VCO FM input

Your goal here is to take noise and slow it down so it makes an oscillator wobble and slowly drift in pitch +/- 30 cents, greater drift for a fatter sound, smaller drift for an edgier sound. You need to overdub your oscillator 8 to 16 times to create the supersaw effect. I don't own the MOTM-101 so the "Slow" noise may or may not give the right wobble and drift. Note that the pitch can't *just* wobble, it also needs to drift! If there's no drift, you'll get a less pleasant spread of pitches when overdubbing. Takes a bit of trial and error to get the right wobble and drift, helps to have a tuner to see if you're drifting and not just wobbling.

NASTY FILTER

Noise --> Filter FM input

Creates a nasty filter sound.

BUBBLY FILTER

Noise --> Slew limiter or Lowpass filter or possibly Pink noise --> Filter FM Input

Like above, except you are slowing down the noise so it creates a bubbly or warbly effect

RAIN, OCEAN WAVES, WIND, BOILING FX

Noise --> Filter input, add little to no resonance for wind and waves, lots of resonance for rain and boiling
Same noise --> Filter FM input
LFO or ADSR --> Same Filter FM input

Expiriment by using a slew limiter or lowpass filter before the filter fm input and overdubbing with different settings to create wind orchestrations. I've created extremely realistic rain using digital synths and fx. It requires overdubbing. I'm not sure how to achieve this in the analog world, but it also requires that the noise/audio source is somehow shaped to create pops and clicks as well as having the standard SHHHHH sound. I'd love to try doing this analog.
