Elektor "Formant" part 2
Part 2 of my series about the “F_Series”, a bundle of modules forged after the legendary DIY modular synth “Formant” (the 1977/78 Elektor project) in Voltage Modular is online now.
In this part I demonstrate and explain a couple of patches – one of which is especially interesting for fans of Emerson, Lake and Palmer – and show some special ways of tweaking them.
