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.
