new upload: Pot Percussion Sequence

Absynth 5 only - filesize 717,6 KB - zip folder contains the ksd and three samples (wav/48khz/24 Bit/mono)
This special patch processes 3 sampled I made for my Kontakt patches Pot percussion. Hitting a steel cooking pot with a wooden spoon in different velocities. All samples run in Granular mode, sample playhead position/speed and Grainsize are sequenced with 3 temposynced envelopes in Retrigger mode (see screenshot). Alter the Grainsize with Macro 1, add Random Grain Pitch with the Modwheel and bring in a sort of Reverse effect for Chanels B and C with Macro 2. All Channels use a Ringmodulator and a Cloudfilter for processing. Control Ringmod Balance and Pitch with Macros 5/6 Cloudfilter Balance with Macro 7. In the Master section you'll find a Supercomb Filter, Filter Feedback processed by a Frequency Shifter. Control the Supercomb Balance with Macro 8. A LPF 8 Pole Filter processes the signal furtherly before it hits the Aetherizer. Control LPF Cutoff with Macro 3 and the ringmodulated Filter Resonance with Macro 4. Macros 9-12 give you control over the Aetherizer's Wet Balance, Gran Rate, Gran Feedback and Gran Transpose. This patch can be anything from a beautiful gamelanish bell sound to a totally chaotic evil rhythm machine. Have fun!

A lot of temposynced Wavemorphing and panning is going on in this patch. Check the modules and enevlopes for details. This patch is very velocity sensitive concerning the timbre. Control Attack/Decay with Macros 1+2, Master LP Cutoff with Macro 5, Filter Resonance of Channel C with Macro 6. The Modwheel adds Cloudfilter Space and a fast squareshaped LFO. The Aetherizer in the FX section is tuned up an octave, control it's Balance and pitch with Macros 9-11.

This patch processes a longer Soundscape (1:43) I produced with the Comb Delay- and self resonating features of u-he's More Feedback Machine 2. Each Oscillator is set to Granular mode and plays a different section of the sample. The sample playhead position/speed is controlled by velocity sensitive envelopes, the harder you hit the key the faster the samples will play. Each Channel has an envelope in Retrigger mode controlling the Channel volume and every 4 beats a different Channel fades in/fades out. All 3 Channels have a Supercomb Filter applied, Filter Feedback modulated by LFO-morphed Ringmodulation. Control the Supercomb Feedback and the Grainsize of the samples with the inverted Modwheel. A Cloudfilter in the Master section and a LPF 4 Pole Filter process the signal furtherly. Control Cloudfilter Balance with Macro 5, Cloudfilter Delay Random with Macro 6. Control the Lowpass Frequency with Macro 7 and the LFO-morphed and waveshaped Filter Resonance with Macro 8. You can also add a pulsating LFO applied to the Channel's volumes with Macro 1 and control the pulsation speed with Macro 2. In the FX section control the size of the Pipe with Macro 10 and it's Feedback with Macro 11. Balance wet and Balance dry can be controlled with Macro 9/12. Check the envelope and LFO page for further modulation sources and targets.
