BIG RESPECT for sharing your knowledge! I wouldn’t know where to begin with the modular gear, having come from semi modulars, like the Moog Mother 32 or Behringer’s Neutron! I see that I have VCAs in the semi modulars, but I don’t so often remember that there are so many different forms of VCA. They are more like a Kingdom or Class of life! Not like a Species! Your final VCA example, bringing in and closing out of the FM, it is really a great eye opener for me! THANK YOU so much for sharing!
You've convinced me! I've started using the built in vca in my Dave Smith filter, and I've already got a noisereap vca kit on the way :) thanks for the simple straightforward lesson!
Thanks for the very informative series! I'm just starting a very small system ( Make Noise Maths and a DPO ) and have spent about two weeks trying to decide what's next for me. It'll be either a Sputnik Quad Filter / VCA or a MN Optomix. Thanks again!
Frank, I was wondering what would happen if you took a bipolar wave and just slid it up or down to make it unipolar above or below the 0 amplitude middle mark while keeping it's shape and frequency the same.. would that only effect the volume or ...?? Really appreciate the videos btw.
Tambour: www.google.com/search?q=tambour You mean timbre. /ˈtambər/ noun: the character or quality of a musical sound or voice as distinct from its pitch and intensity.
hi Frank, based on your videos, im thinking of getting an attenuverter... my question is if you think this one is a good one... and whether it's bi-polar.. -Would appreciate your input. www.befaco.org/en/dual-atenuverter/
The word "Attenuverter" basically means it's an attenuator and inverter, which means it's bipolar. The one you're looking at is definitely bipolar. I wouldn't deliberate too much about things like attenuverters personally. Just pick something that looks reasonable and go with it. That module in the link looks perfectly good to me, especially since it's got DC offset built into it too.
TAMBOUR?!?!?! Do you mean TIMBER?! TREMMALO?!?!?! MELLODIC, OFCOURSE, CONTROLE, REALY, AUDIORATE, IMPUT, OSCILATORS, SIMULTAINIOUSLY, ... You went to school only the days it was closed, right?

sure thing man, glad I could help

Very many thanks, Frank - Your series was extremely informative and useful.
Great series, thanks!
Fantastic video!
I'
m already gonna have 5 right off the bat and I'm damn proud!!!
Great video. Nice Intellijel collection you have!
You sir are the best!!!
Frank really thanks a lot for Your excellent explanation!!! Opened my eyes as a beginner wiggler-:) i hope you'll make more tutorials about modular...
+Arjan Schuijt
Thank you.
There are a few more tutorials here on the channel. And yes, I plan on doing a few more at least
That was very helpful, thank you.
Cheers for this Frank.. In the 'clipping distortion' part of this can you tell me what exactly your doing?? Sounds class
+Jase Vaughan
I go into a bit more debth on this in the part 1 - it is the exponential setting on the intellijel uVCA.
Wow that overdrive sounds WONDERFUL!
Which VCA is that module?
How many VCAs do I need if I have 3 oscillators, 2 LFO, one FM synthesizer like Akemie's Castle and a wave table synthesizer?
This is awesome and kinda funny, it happens i am sitting designing a VCA for eurorack or just me, and listen to this what are the odds :)

Did you put out an album of this stuff?
1:55 omg thats bad ass . . what a nice frequency double drop wudb

Tambour = timbre?
Tremmalo???
Yes, that is how you pronounce it and spell it.
pronounce it yes... but not how you spell it... great informative video.

Thanks for the videos! I think you mean "timbre", tambour is a near eastern instrument ;)
timbre isn't pronounced tim-ber
doodletownpipers I'm referring to the spelling in the video. he may have changed it since my comment
TAMBOUR?!?!?! Do you mean TIMBER?!
TREMMALO?!?!?!

Informative. You could use some help with spelling though.
