I have a few basic patch techniques that I came across here when browsing the forum so I thought it would be a good idea to collect those here for anyone interested These techniques are can be patched on starter rack II they don't require any specialized modules. These two recipes are not generating sounds but are still very useful IMHO.
Random triggers (credit to rockysmalls).
We all know that the cr out of your noise module sends out random triggers but unfortunately there is no way to sync these triggers to the main clock of your patch.
What you can do however is patch the +5v output of the master module to the mode cv of your SEQ8 which sets it to random mode (i.e. everytime the SEQ8 receives a clock pulse it will trigger one of its steps in random order). Now you pick one or more of the individual trigger outputs and that will provide you with one or more random triggers which run in sync with the master clock.
Random gate
This is building on the random triggers so patch this first.
Now make sure that 2 steps of the SEQ8 trigger CV II, 2 steps trigger CV III, 2 steps trigger CV IV, and 2 steps to trigger CV V. Now dial CV II and CV III to 0V (fully counter clock) and CV IV and CVV to 5V (fully clockwise).
Connect your master clock pulse to the CLK of SEQ8 and you will have a random gate ON/OFF on the CV out of your seq8 synced in tempo with your clock.

For random triggers with the CR out you could just logic it with a clock source. |

yes but with some bad luck your cr trigger would never/always line up with your clockpuls and always/never generate a pulse.

Then modulate the trigger generator! (A sample and hold of the noise out in the same module is fun)

Not sure it is a "basic patch technique" but one thing I love to do with my AE is gently modulate the filter resonance to vary the sound of the patch - this has to be the Nyle filter unless you do the feedback loop as per the Patch suggestions on the relevant filter pages in the Wiki. An LFO thru' a the 2ATTCV is good, but an (separate to the main) envelope sync'ed with the keypress can be very good, and I look forward to trying the KeurtlagerKeut Sloth on this soon,  |
