Earcandles - A hidden map of bone

from Æther Waves Vol. 5 by Æther Waves

about

I've had this patch set up for 3 weeks, occasionally messing with it while passing by, and used it for a live set recently.

The pervasive bass/string instrument sound relies upon the Wavetable oscillator, fed through a State Variable filter and envelope generator. The latter also controls the wvetable's wave Modulation parameter. It is sequenced by noise fed to a sample and hold and a quantiser.

The remainder of the patch comprises basic oscillator/filter/envelope voices, driven by fast-running sequencers and the Topograf module, aiming for something more like bird and insect sounds than melodies, as well as a stack of drones. The drones are built with: The FM Oscilator, a Grains module running a West Coast style oscillator, a Solina Strings module, fed through a wave folder and Nyle filter, a simple delay feeding back, a 2 signal Amp feeding back, and an envelope, also feeding back.

another Grains module plays a very slowed-down portion of a drum loop.

Just about everything is fed through the Multi FX module, mostly the ring Crusher, but sometime switching to other effects.

Slightly excessive reverb is added in Audacity.
