Make Noise FXDf - Manual (Page 8)

PATCH IDEAS
SpectralPlexer
-Take all six outputs of the FXDf as source cables for touching the Teleplexer.
-Patch the Teleplexer's outputs to three destinations of your choice and send pieces of sound through at will
or randomly.
If you have a RxMx, consider chaining it to the FXDf and patching the A, B and C outputs to the Aux INputs
of the Teleplexer. Switch back and forth between automatic and manual distribution by modulating or not
modulating the RxMx, and playing or not playing the source cables.
Redshift
-Sequence a DPO or STO and patch its sine wave output to either of the FXDf inputs.
-Tailor the pitch range of the sequence so that the sound comes periodically through at least three of the
FXDf outputs.
-Patch each OUTput to a different processing destination. The different INputs will emphasize portions of
the sequence differently.
Wormhole
-Patch an audio signal of your choice into either of the FXDf inputs.
-Pick one of the three lower-frequency bands and patch its output to the Echophon.
-Patch the Echophon's Feedback output to the other FXDf input, and patch another band's output to the
Echophon's Feedback input.
-Monitor the Signal Out from the Echophon.
Consider adding a VCA in series with the signal path at any or multiple point(s). If FXDf is chained to a
RxMx, try substituting the B OUTput for one of the frequency band outputs, and manipulate the RxMx
animation controls for playable variation within the feedback path. All parameters of the Echophon will also
have a great effect on the sound.
Reanimation
-Record a rhythmic motif into the Phonogene using a static low-frequency waveform with little harmonic
content, such as a sine or triangle, as the sound source (ideally, this wave will be patched through a
VCA or LPG and rhythmically animated).
-Splice to taste, then, setting SOS to noon, overdub a different but related rhythm using a higher-frequency
waveform.
-Set SOS to Loop and patch the Phonogene's output to the 6dB input of the FXDf.
-Find the two bands that sound loudest and patch them to Ch1 and Ch4 of MATHS, or to two Functions.
-Set both Channels up as Envelope Followers using the patch from the MATHS/Function manual.
-Patch the MATHS or Function signal outs to recreate the two rhythms.
Manipulate rhythms using Gene Size and Slide controls on the Phonogene. If you have more than two
MATHS channels, you could overdub a third rhythm at its own frequency, or shift the rhythms up or down
the FXDf outputs by manipulating the Phonogene's Vari-Speed control, allowing new envelope followers to
be sent to new destinations.
