I m really a beginner of modular synthesis, but I hope this is only a result of experimenting, I heare only roahuroaughhhhh and so on. No music :-? No melody?
I guess it is science to understand? ? ?

I hope I can make music with my new modular iv. . . :roll:

Yes Mod IV is very musical. RK and others here demonstrate the various timbres made using Mod IV and tricks to achieve these timbres, the rest is basically up to you.
I have a copy of every jpeg RK has given us in regards to Mod IV tricks, and can use them to great effect, naturally modifying them slightly to benefit my workflow.
Learn as much about the connections as you can, so when the Masters show us new stuff, translating that into music is a walk in the park....

Thanks RK

Yes, this was experimenting. But my MUSIC will not sound different for you, I'm afraid. :)
