Use the two Audio In jacks of Micro Modular to patch and process external audio signals. Plug in another synthesizer or other equipment that outputs a line level signal. Route the input signal via the Audio In module in the Editor program to the rest of the patch, and experiment with the sound processing capabilities of Micro Modular.
Did you know you can use your Micro Modular for multi-band compression of external signals? Patch 98, 3-Band Compresso, is a 3-band compressor. This patch can be used to give a nice ”face-lift” to your master mix. To begin with there is a left and a right filter section. Here you set the three band ranges for each channel. Each band is then routed to a stereo COMPRESSOR and stereo EXPANDER section (the expanders work as noise gates). The three different stereo bands are then mixed and routed to a ”master” stereo COMPRESSOR (works only as limiter here). As you adjust the parameters in the patch, it’s quite easy to compress the sound too much. Therefore, it’s a good idea to frequently compare processed signals with unprocessed signals. By switching between ’1’ and ’2’ on the two BYPASS switches, you can compare the processed and unprocessed signal of each stereo channel. ’1’ is processed signal and ’2’ is unprocessed (bypassed) signal. Some hints: Adjust the Threshold values of the EXPANDER modules to eliminate any input noise. Try adding, for example, two (one for each channel) OVERDRIVE modules after the EXPANDER HI module to add more treble to the processed sound.
Patch 99, SHIFT-O-MANIA, is a model of a basic digital pitch-shifter. Use Knob 1 for pitch-shift amount and Knob 2 for direction of the pitch shifting (up or down). Great for speech effects!
