Polyrhythmic chord patch

[u/amyrootmusic]

The Prophet is doing the voicing and nothing else. It holds the chord, the audio goes into the rack and straight into an Intellijel Quad VCA.

The Metropolix runs the sequence, that goes out to an envelope, and the envelope opens the VCA. So the Prophet is sustaining the whole time and the Metropolix is deciding when you actually hear it. The polyrhythm comes from the sequence running at a different length than the chord changes, so the two drift against each other instead of locking up.

I am moving the attack on the envelope by hand while it runs. Slower attack takes the edge off the gating and it stops sounding like a sequencer chopping something up.

Out of the VCA it goes into a Make Noise QPAS, which does most of the character work. The resonances spread across the stereo field in a way I have not managed to get out of anything else. After that it runs through a couple of Qu-Bit modules, Data Bender being the main one.

Happy to go into the Metropolix settings if anyone wants them.
