I have some heavy stuff going on in my life right now, so I wanted to make something that sounded positive and happy. This piece is called "Fields of Flowers."

For this live eurorack modular performance, I wanted to explore more using the Maths module as a drum synthesizer. I'm using an idea from the Make Noise YouTube channel, where 0-ctrl is creating a sequence that triggers channel 1 of Maths into channel 4 to push it into audio range. I'm not using an VCAs or envelopes, other than the fall of channel 1. Since this skiff I put together is sort of my version of the Make Noise Tape and Microsound Machine, where I've substituted a 4ms Tapographic Delay and an X-Pan, I wanted to explore some of the tape possibilities, so I'm running audio from the Maths into the Morphagene and using a combination of the live and the sound on sound recording to push the rhythms around. I'm using the resonance delay from the Tapographic Delay to create polyrhythms too. Finally, the random panning is coming from the Wogglebug into Maths channel 2 for attenuation. After all these drum sounds, I decided to add some arpeggios from the Moog Grandmother using 4 or 5 notes to create more polyrhythms. I'm using the hard sync to create more harmonics. I felt like these two things together made kind of a synthwave performance appropriate for a film.

Patch Notes:
Make Noise 0-ctrl as sequencer and clock. Gate channel into Trigger of Maths Channel 1. Pitch sequence into Maths Channel 3 attenuated to make pitch variation in the drums. Time sequence into QPAS resonance CV.

Maths SUM into #/b input of Channel 4. Maths Channel 1 output to QPAS FM2, but only at the end. Channel 2 of Maths is attenuating Wogglebug step output to X-Pan panning CV.
Audio to Morphagene, Morphagene audio to QPAS.
QPAS: I'm using the low pass output with the bandpass output plugged into FM1. Audio to 4ms Tapographic Delay.
Tapographic Delay clocked and using resonance type delay. Manual control of knobs. Audio to X-Pan.

Moog Grandmother:
Normalled patch clocked by 0-ctrl. I'm using hard sync to create harmonics.
