Multi Envelope Mixing
Posted: Fri Oct 29, 2010 11:57 am
Not sure if anyone likes the way Studio Electronics or other hardware Analog synths have multiple envelopes each with their own amounts to mix.
This Modular patch has been tweaked from the usual 4 x 1 Gain Switch for envelope routing to a mixer wher various envelopes can be mixed.
The AHD Loop envelope has been reworked by Julian @ Soniccore and it's a blessing.
My hardware synths have no such envelope, so again, having hardware emulated, then bypassing its capabilities is what siftware should do IMHO. Otherwise there's no reason to settle for software as an option. So thanks to the designers of this great module.
I can get those crazy sounds the Who had their keyboardist doing years ago that everyone assumed was the Oberheim Sequencer.......still don't know what synth it really was as the internet experts think they know, but I saw these guys live and couldn't see the Oberheim DS anywhere.....doesn't matter though now.
I am sure most folks can see the 4 x 1 mixer from Roy w/ the Inv. switches.......and then realize which envelope output goes to which mixer input. ADSR / ADSR Inv. / AHD and SelfMultiply by John Bowen, but the 2 x 1 mixer ( also RoyT ) was used for seperating or combining the Unipolar or BiPolar signals from the AHD Loop Envelope.
At any rate those complex combinations can get really nice Brass Hit/Swells, and ZZ Top/Who Grooves, and evolving pads are also extra sweet.
