Ammo 100LA “Light Artillery”

Since we have four oscillators, set 

Voices

 to 4. (You can also set the 

Priority

, so that the each note of the chord is sent to 

same oscillator. For now, set 

Priority

 to “Low”, so the that lowest note goes to Oscillator 1 

and the highest note goes to Oscillator 4.) Now play a three or four note chord, and you have 
a three or four note polyphonic synth!

Now set 

Priority

 to “Rotate”, and just play a repeating three-note chord. You now have now 

programmed a wave sequencing polyphonic arpeggiator by hand! 

Charlotte

 sequentially rotates three notes across four voices, one step for each gate on. A single 

Charlotte

 supports up to 

eight voices, so add more oscillators. But remember, you’ll need to play/sequence one less note in the chord than the num-
ber of Oscillators/Voices you have for this to work, or else there is no spare voice to rotate through.

Patches

A selection of instrument and insert effect Combinators featuring the 

Ammo 100LA

 are available from your patch browser.

As befi ts the sonic heart of a modular system, note that most of the patches which are using one or more 

Ammo 100LA 

devices as the instrument sound source require 

Charlotte Envelope Generator

. Required Rack Extensions are listed within 

the brackets of the patch name; while RE Studio or Creative effects, such as 

Chenille Chorus Ensemble

, or 

Audiomatic Retro 

Transformer

, are not necessary for the patch to function, those with Utilities, such as 

Lolth CV Delay Splitter

, are. 

Charlotte

 

and the “Super-Spider Bundle” are also available from the Propellerhead Shop.
