Part 8 of my series about the modules of Voltage Modular (and part 3 of the “F_Series”, a bundle of modules forged after the legendary DIY modular synth “Formant” - the 1977/78 Elektor project in Voltage Modular) is online now.

In this part I demonstrate and explain the central switching and gating module F_GENR8 and make it work in a couple of example patches.

Content/Timeline:

00:00 What is the module good for?

01:36 A quick introduction to all functions

02:54 The central clock´s function

04:54 Patch 1: the 8 regular gates and the 4 LFOs

09:33 The “F_modules” universe

10:15 Patch 2: the 4 logic gates and synchronizing events

18:17 The 4 random gates

20:51 Patch 3: random gates plus logic gates (and a funny mistake)

24:42 3 types of random gates

26:39 What´s left to mention
