Where do you start?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Modular synthesizers are an open book waiting to be written \u2013 a prospect that can be pretty scary for a beginner. PATCH & TWEAK is here to help, with step-by-step strategies for building a modular that will reflect your creative desires. Start with an empty case, and learn about everything that can go into it. There\u2019s even a guide to semi-modular and software solutions to help get you started.<\/p>\n

Concepts of synthesis \u2013<\/strong> made easy to understand and easy to apply From the basics of sound synthesis to the outer reaches of modern design, you\u2019ll find everything you\u2019ll need to approach your modular with confidence. Starting with building blocks like oscillators, filters, and amplifiers, you\u2019ll go from discovery to discovery through everything from essentials like envelopes, LFOs, mixers, effects, and CV modifiers, to more in-depth sound-shaping tools like waveshapers, samplers, drum and percussion modules, rhythm pattern generators, sequencers, controllers, and more. Get a grip on concepts like harmonics, voltage control, logic functions, random signal sources, and dozens of others \u2013 and never feel out of your depth again.<\/p>\n

Save money, save time, save the hassle With hundreds of manufacturers and thousands of modules out there, it can be easy to buy a module that you think will be brilliant for you\u2026 but then just falls flat.
