First 10 secondsĪre just to establish a baseline, then I open up the cutoff, thenīring up the resonance to make it sing, then I let the FM kick in, Recorded running bare naked into Audacity. Sweeping bass sound tweaked with Moog Slayer and FM-800 modifications. Original first, then a combination of all effects. Original first, then moogslayer with 12dB filter slope. Ah, can't stop those knobs from turning!! Later I set parameter 84 (VCF mod) to 01 and param 81 (LFO speed) to 00įor a slow, stepped quantized modulation of the filter. Sequencer offĪnd real-time playing and fiddling. Then judicious amounts of FM-800 are applied, some joystick. I used a 100k pot, sound gets more filtered anti-clock wise, also installed the switch for toggling betweenįactory and MS). Then I kick Moogslayer in with reso to the max and begin fiddling with cutoff (BTW

Then get processed by the filter (I'm gonna take care of that with a shielded cable but will try to keep the Unwanted side-effect of having an external pot for white noise, the synth picks up some radio waves which
