[ youtube jam - download patch ]

This is one of the first patches of early 2024 when I started experimenting with fixed racks inspired by some limited Eurorack setups. At that time, I was overwhelmed with endless amounts of different modules, and it seemed like I was just copying the DAW workflow - creating a lot of tracks and trying to make songs using old principles. It was part of the transition to the modular world, I believe.

I started exploring smaller Eurorack setups and creative techniques people have used and was heavily inspired. Patches that contained 10-15 modules were much more alive and moving than my boring, bulky patches! I decided to use more limitations and start learning the modules I use more deeply.

This setup was intended to include only Mutable (Audible) Instruments modules, but later the Plateau reverb was added. I’m still figuring out the possibilities of ~62HP 4U equivalent setups in VCV, so I’ll upload a few more jams with this setup later!

Patch notes:

• Marbles:
  • triggers Tides
  • triggers Rings
  • sends CV to Plaits
  • triggers Clouds freeze function through Bernoulli gate
• Tides: generates 3 envelopes that control some parameters on Plaits / Ripples / Warps
• Plaits & Rings are mixed together and go to Clouds
