I was hoping to find a patch that may approximate the Zlob F3DB. I really love what I hear when you combine the fixed filter bank with feedback from a no-input mixer setup and being able to modulate the frequency bands. There is so much potential diversity and variety in the sound. Does anyone know if a patch exists that has these features?
(would be extra bonus if it runs in Meta Module :))
Easy enough to patch it yourself, there are a couple of FFBs in the library and you can create feedback with a mixer module. Mind your ears though, especially if you use headphones!
Nice! I made a patch using external feedback through a 4-track with the PEQ-14, and manually tuned each frequency band to a different note of C minor 9, so that when it started feeding back at certain level it played a strange, eerie sounding chord.
@gkillmaster do you have a link to any decent demos of that module? The ones I found sounded kinda bad.
I got goldtorizo’s patch working in Meta Module. On top of it being super finicky and hard to control, the audio keeps shutting off, both in MM and VCV. I tried a lot of things like feeding different audio into it and using LFOs to modulate the frequency levels and it seems like anything I do breaks it. I probably just don’t know how to tweak it properly.
This is the video that inspired me to look into this:
I can dig out the patch, but I’m not sure it would work for anyone else. I was using a very specific setup with my old laptop and a 4-track portastudio. The outputs from my interface went to the first two track inputs, then the aux sends from the 4-track were routed back to the inputs on the interface to create the feedback loop. The benefit of that is you can ride the faders on the 4-track to get a sweet spot where it’s just the right level, and the preamps distort which gives it a nice analogue saturation.
I can try and convert the patch to run purely inside the box, but I think you have to be very careful with feedback in VCV. It’s easy for levels to run out of control, and some modules kick out a ‘nanV’ when they overload, which I’ve never fully understood but basically means they’re knackered snd you need to reload the patch or even delete and reload the module.
