Where Are You? (part 2)

I'm playing a French Connection controller against a simple looping phrase. If you listen carefully to the phrase, the pulses change vary slightly throughout the composition.

The French Connection is controlling a small collection of modules including a Cwejman VCO-RM2, MMF1, Plan B model 11 and Doepfer VCA. The left hand joystick is controlling various parameters including the frequency of the slave osc of the VCO which is also frequency modulating one of the filters.

Vimeo has a better quality version of this piece, including stereo audio. Unfortunately, this piece is not really mono compatible - all sorts of phase cancelation occurs when youtube collapses the file to stereo.

Please clear up some confusion for me. If I buy this controller, So, no actual sound is produced by the French Connection? I'd have to get an oscillator module to plug into? I would greatly appreciate your clarification as I'm quite new to synthesis.

@rasputinvanclitt the french connection is a controller and produces no sound on its own. You would need, at minimum, an oscillator to produce a tone, and a VCA to govern amplitude.

Is there a part one?

[stretta]

Yes, part one exists, but it is unreleased.

Stretta, what are the components from your modular you are using to get the sound here? I hear the reverb (delicious btw) :D but the oscillator and VCA etc? I am getting one in the next few months and want some textured sounds to come the the controller, is that possible? PS...I wish I had this song on cd!_! Thanks Stretta
