Patching a Modular Synthesizer
The following pages contain many examples of how to patch the Foundation. The examples have been chosen to showcase the Olexibility of
the Foundation and to highlight as many features from each module as possible. Use the patches provided as a teaching tool. Once you have
setup a patch, adjust knobs and remove cables from the Foundation while referencing the module description pages within the manual. This
will help develop an understanding of what function each part of the patch is performing.
The patch guide provides at least one "_______ Module Highlight" Patch for each module within the Foundation. These patches are designed to
showcase the core functionality as well as additional features of the highlighted module. In general, the Highlight patches will provide a way
to focus attention on the capabilities of a single module and may not provide results that would be considered musical.
Working with individual modules can be fun but the true power of any modular synthesizer comes when different modules start to interact.
Patching the output of one module to the input of another is a fundamental part of modular synthesis. Even though the Foundation is
designed to be a tabletop modular, the patches can become complex quickly. Any output on the Foundation can be patched to any input.
Understanding the capabilities and functionality available from each module will allow even the most complex patches to be understood
easily.
If you come up with a good patch, we want to try it! Send all your interesting patches to info@pittsburghmodular.com.
