LFOs Manipulating Waveform Generators-078.wav

Macro: Short loops and medium loops of experimental electronic music/sound/noise.

Meso: Short to medium-length loops generated by LFO (low frequency oscillators) and VCO (voltage controlled oscillators) and Waveshapers (similar to, or a type of, VCO).

Objective Micro: Deeper warble, metallic, electric and buzzing tones overlap and interplay in a way that's hard to describe. This one is one of my favorite little loops in this series.

Subjective Micro: I stand in awe at the foot of the post-post-post-post-modernist electro-mechanical-kinetic-sculpture that's been set loose on the streets of downtown Little Rock, Arkansas.

Technical:
• DAW: VCV Rack v.1.1.6
• Elements used: Various LFOs, VCOs, and Waveshapers
• Method: LFOs were set at different rates/frequencies and then were mapped onto the controls of various VCOs and Waveshapers. Some LFOs used, such as the Range LFO by RJModules, allow one to specify the voltage output to a certain range as well as being able to decide wave shape, such as Sine, Sawtooth, Triangle, and Square. Using a number of these LFOs, both individually and some chained to one another, I was able to control other LFOs and VCOs. This sometimes resulted in complex wave forms and sometimes simple wave forms.
