Polyphonic Rings Midi In

Been experimenting with using meta module as a polyphonic chord voice. Sequqenced from my Vector Sequencer along side a bassline and drums.
Recording of this test has the set up:
vector midi device out>4ms rings patch >beads>fx aid
vector>moog grandmother
drum machine>vector

This opens up so much as I can essentially sequence a chord voice from the module. The patch itself has 6 ring voices with polyphonic midi set up. After some testing I found the reset setting to be the best for note voicing. This patch also works plugging in a midi keyboard

It works fairly well, although I cant seem to switch to different rings settings without crashing CPU.

let me know if there is a better way to format SoundCloud files

Thank you very much for this patch. It is a nice sounding setup. I reduced the number of resonator modules from six to three and have not had any issues with crashing when switching the settings. I’m sequencing it with my Mac and then running the output through a Mimeophon and a Desmodus Versio.

great to hear. I think a polyphonic voice is a great way to use this module! Exciting opportunities. I might try to put together some other voicing options

BIGGG update to the rings patch!!! Turns out switching every mode polyponically at the same time was overloading the clock. Saving a patch for each mode is an easy workaround. One for each resonator model
