In MetaModule v2.0, you can now load audio directly from an SD card, making it easy to incorporate your own samples into patches.
This patch uses a VoxGlitch Grain Engine to scramble a WAV file. The audio used in the patch is a recording of the poem All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace by Richard Brautigan. An EQ and reverb are applied to make the final result a little less harsh. Granular synthesis lets you grab tiny snippets of audio and stretch or warp the sound. It’s somewhat like a delay, pitch shifter, and time compression/expansion device all in one. The size and number of grains greatly influence the resulting sound palette. This particular granular synthesis module also includes a “jitter” feature, which introduces unpredictability and glitchy textures.
External Audio Path:
- Main audio outputs are on channels 1 and 2.
Internal Audio Path:
- The VoxGlitch Grain Engine runs into an EQ filter and then a Valley Plateau plate reverb.
Internal CV Path:
- An LFO controls the playback head position in the WAV file.
