you are challenged to make a patch in vcv rack to showcase creative use of modules, so other users may get inspired. you can also win eternal fame!
since the deadline for this edition will be 11/11, which is singles’ day in asia, the theme this time is: single source
this time only one oscillator or other sound source (sampler, noise module, self-resonating filter, etc.) is allowed. you can send this one sound to multiple channels for parallel processing, but do not add other sound sources.
== rules ==
make a patch in vcv rack using the chosen module and upload your patch to https://patchstorage.com/ and/or in your reply to this thread
tag your upload with vcp-43
you are encouraged to only use free modules in the patch, but this is not required
make a video showcasing your patch and upload it to youtube
add a link to your video as a comment to this post (these videos will be collected in a playlist)
give feedback on other participants’ patches
deadline: monday end of the day, wherever you are, november 11th
(though late entries will still be added to the playlist)
a new challenge with a different module will be announced every other tuesday.
this one seems tailor made for me because I struggle with moving on from a single source usually I just spiral into an effects envelopes and processing maze that layers on top of itself and I’m excited I might actually participate in one of these for once
Only Starling Meta, sequenced by a new module, Seasons (I love it ), and some drums by Gateseq and a manual gate for mute them if the police is coming: https://patchstorage.com/vcp-43-one-osc/
i like leaving those things up to individual discretion. the challenge is meant to stimulate creativity. i don’t feel like nitpicking details is going to help with that.
I guessing an LFO is okay if not used as a sound source? If so, what about using a vco to do FM synthesis? The Fundamental VCO-1 modules are great for that.
