Patch Notes:
Bastl Kastle: It is getting the clock from Volca Modular. Two outputs from Pattern are modulating the Drum Mod. LFO is modulating the decay. I am playing with the Decay knob and Drum Mod knob live, which changes the envelopes and pitch of the sounds being generated by Bastl Kastle.

Korg Volca Modular: The positive output from the first function generator is going into the second low pass gate. The second low pass gate is being triggered every fourth step of the sequencer, which is giving me the kick for the patch.

The second function generator is cycling with self-trigger. One of the outputs of the second function generator is modulating the release of the first function generator.

Every fourth step of the sequencer also modulates the pitch CV through the Sample and Hold (woggle). However, it is going through an attenuator, so I have more control over it. I am opening and closing the attenuator live to bring variations to the bassline/melody.

No FX have been used for this patch.

About Psychopanda:
Psychopanda is a modular synth artist from New Delhi, India. A proponent of free improv, he is in love with atypical musical structures that do not follow the norms of Western music. A music educator, too, Psychopanda's live sets are always a sonic adventure which can go between ambient textures and strange rhythms fit for an underground rave, depending on the audience and the mood of the synth.
