This actually grew out of the beating oscillators/drone piece. I was using LFOs to slowly vary the pitch very slightly of the oscillators to change they cancel and reinforce. Then I realized I could also vary the pitch quite a bit and quantize it.
And since it was droning going on (originally) there’s no envelopes on notes. Running oscillators with no envelope is @Omri_Cohen’s trick and in this case I think it works.
So the middle of it is an Bog Audio FM Op played by two ‘drone’ pitch inputs that get modulated by LFOs. I monkey with scaling and transposition before feeding the tones through a @synthi Scala quantizer with a scale of my own fiending devising. If you look into the patch I feed the unquantized pitch CV into a VCV QNT, with a pentatonic scale, then into the Scala which is one of my prime ratio scales. It’s close to equal temperament but just far enough away from it to have some really interesting pitch combinations.
