Drone machine
Description
The Creepcluster has these features:
2x trianglewave oscillators
1x analog switch clocked by a squarewave
1x lowpass filter (with cutoff control)
The two oscillators go through the analog switch which is clocked at audiorate.
The resulting signal is a rich droning sound that can scream, drone and rumble the earth. The filter is more of a shaper to accentuate the low or the high frequencies.
The pitches of the two oscillators are set to a phasing frequency. The switch can also be set to that same frequency to effectively get a 3th phasing sound.
When set to a much higher frequency, the switch will make metallic screaming sounds.
Use the filter to shape these sounds again.
There is a main output jack and three other jacks that can be connected to various mod points, to be decided by the builder:
OSC1 cv
OSC2 cv
OSC3 cv
OSC1 direct output
OSC2 direct output
CLOCK direct output
Switch 2 input 1
Switch 2 input 2
Switch 3 input 1
Switch 3 input 2
Switch 2 output
Switch 3 output
The 3 direct outputs can be connected without extra parts. The other mods need some (minimal) additional circuitry.
