hello, here are some very short examples for the a143/1 and a143/2 quad envelope generators. obviously these modules leave ordinary quad envelope generators behind. they can also be used as multistage envelopes or lfo's. the examples are mostly very simple, but this way the shape of the envelopes and lfo's are most recognisable. a143/1 example 1 + 2 (064kb + 106kb) in the first two examples the a143/1 mix out was used to modulate the pitch of an a110 sinewave. all generators were set to "ad". http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-1-example1.mp3 http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-1-example2.mp3 a143/1 example 3 (111kb) in the third example all four generators of the a143/1 were set to "lfo". the rest is basically the same as in the first two examples. http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-1-example3.mp3 a143/1 example 4 (080kb) in the fourth example 3 separate outs of the a143/1 were used to modulate the cutoff frequencies of an a127 triple bandpass filter. the sound source for the filter is an a110 pulse with fixed frequency. http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-1-example4.mp3 a143/2 example 5 (066kb) in example 5 the "end-of-attack" outputs of the a143/2 were used for chaining the envelopes together. the rest of the patch was very similar to example 4. again an a127 was used and also the same a110 pulse as source. http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-2-example5.mp3 a143/2 example 6 (096kb) example six is a more complex patch and useful for creating custom distortion effects. the a110 pulse wave was fed into an a101/3 vactrol phaser with two additional feedback loops. the level of those feedback loops were controlled by an a132 dual vca. two envelopes of the a143/2 were chained together with the "end-of-decay" output and were used to modulate the a132 dual vca. the two remaining envelopes were used to modulate the pitchshift of the a101/3 and the gain of a final vca (a131). http://www.selfoscillate.de/a100files/a143-2-example6.mp3 best wishes ingo
