Very interesting thread. Being able to do physical modelling on a
modular should be very interesting. Anybody who doubts this should
listen to the mp3 examples on the Modcan website.
Breath control is a wonderful thing on a modular. I have been using
Yamaha breath controllers for some time to control amplitude, filter
cutoff, waveform (on Analogue Systems VCOs), etc. I'm guessing it
could be even more useful with this "flanger" module. Does anybody
know where this kind of control would be inserted in the signal path
Also, does anybody know if pitch control on a modular karplus-strong
delay line can be good old 1 volt per octave Or will it be more
complicated than this (I have tried programming new sounds on my
Yamaha VL70m and have found that it is very easy to program
unplayable sounds.)
