External Audio Path:
-Audio output on channel 1 and 2
Internal Audio path:
-There are 2 identical voices consisting of a sine wave VCO, an A/R generator, a VCA, and a delay.
-One voice is a PWM square wave oscillator going into a VCA controlled by an A/R generator. This is then fed into a secondary VCA whose amplitude is controlled by a triangle LFO.
-This patch then goes into a VCF and then a delay.
-A macro oscillator in WMAP mode goes into a simple EQ
-All 4 sounds are mixed together using a stereo mixer
-The master mix then goes through a master reverb.
Internal CV path:
-For 3 of the voices, an LFO triggers a random voltage. The random voltage then gets fed back into this LFO to create a chaotic clock source. The clock then triggers an envelope generator for each voice.
-The random voltage is fed into an attenuator, is quantized, and then goes to the VCO generating the pitch for the voice.
MetaModule knob mappings:
A - Quantizer 1 offset
B - Quantizer 2 offset
C - Quantizer 3 offset
D - Macro oscillator timbre
E - Macro oscillator color
F - Macro oscillator high frequency cutoff
U - Mixer vol ch. 1
V - Mixer vol ch. 2
W - Mixer vol ch. 3
X - Mixer vol ch. 4
I load this one in the Meta Module before I shutdown after a session so when I start up next time I immediately get good vibes coming out of the monitors.
I love the patches everyone is putting out, really helps me conceptualize the power of this lil puppy! And inspire! Woo!
it sounds like the plugins are on your SD card, but not loaded. Go to settings > plugins > scan disk, then scroll down to the bottom and click “load all.” Let me know if you’re still having issues
Ok, thank you. But increasing the buffer size means that I have to re-change the size the next time I want to have an sequencer running in sync - right?
well the buffer size impacts the latency of the unit, so depending on how you’re using it, that might be an issue. so if you’re using it as a audio processor, like a delay then yes it might be a problem depending on your source material, if however you’re using it as a less time critical effect like a reverb then not so much. As an oscillator again it depends on your envelope shape, gate and so on. So as you can see, the impact of larger buffers is contingent on the material you’re producing - and to be fair how critical your listening faculties (ears) are. I think the Meta can approach 3ms latency which is super fast and remember if you’re listening to a speaker across the room, there will be a similar latency for the sound to reach you. So all very relative. TLDR - adjust to the minimum buffer you can without stuttering. If you’re using different patches in a live set, then you’ll have to plan ahead. The Meta is an incredible unit and we are all still learning what it can do. Dan is a genius.
