Plant plays ambient music

Patch notes below. Cheers to Aleks from Signal Sounds for sending me the Instruo modules to explore! Scion gathers biofeedback data from the plant and converts it to 4 CV and 4 gate signals. The 4 gates trigger envelopes on the Velectronic A-Envelope, which in turn control the level of the 4 channels of the Erica Synths Black Quad VCA 2. Each of those channels is being fed one of Qu-Bit Chord’s note outputs. Qu-Bit is set to harmonize to the major scale, and its note/chord selection and waveshape are modulated by some of Scion’s CVs. Mixing through Make Noise’s X-PAN, two channels’ notes are panned a bit to the left and the other two are panned a bit to the right. All of Scion’s output voltages are also converted to MIDI via a Befaco CV Thing, and the MIDI controls parameters on the Hologram Microcosm, which is processing all of the audio. Though I patched and experimented with all 8 outputs I didn’t end up using them all; as I recall I ended up modulating Microcosm’s Activity, Shape, Time, Repeats, and preset selection. The Space parameter is also providing the lovely end-of-chain reverb. Subscribe → My main channel → Instagram → Twitter → Facebook →
