Patch Cord

Modular synthesizers synthesizers can be described as independent units or modules should be connected with network cables or wires to generate or process audio. These synths are very flexible and have no fixed routes or connections between units or modules.

Since they have no fixed connections, must be connected by network cables using pins on a matrix patch of review by the user to generate global audio and control routing of information. Modular Synthesizers You can find both analogue and digital.

Different types of combinations are in modular synthesizers

Commercial synthesizers modular, which have been developed by Moog and Buchla in 1963, are the first of its kind. The development of synthesizers expanded the spectrum of electronic music. And little by little over time the modular synthesizer, have developed significantly.

Modular synthesizers with different combinations are available on the market. Different modules with the same function with different inputs and outputs of different models can be found while looking for a modular synthesizer.

It consists of modules that is interchangeable, allowing new modules to be added easily, as well as customizing existing modules. It is also the most expensive and exciting synthesizers found.

Standard modules are in modular synthesizers

There are different modules that are found in the modular synthesizers. Some modules are standard in almost every synthesizer modules perhaps in the following categories

VCO
Oscillator voltage controlled. VCO play a note with a simple sound wave, which includes the pulse, triangle, sine waves, square wave or sawtooth wave.

FCR
Voltage controlled filter. VCF filters out all sounds and frequencies above (step height), below (low pass) or above and below (band of way) a certain frequency.

VCA
Voltage controlled amplifier. This is the module that controls the amplitude or overall volume of the synthesizer.

LFO
LFO. LFO has an output waveform of low frequency and the output is usually a sine or triangle wave and is also used as a control voltage to another module. For example, can be used to modulate the frequency of a VCO.

Envelope generator
The envelope generator is most commonly used to control the amplitude or volume of sound, the entry route to control the VCA. He even used to control the timbre of sound, the entry route control of the FVC.

Ring modulator
Two audio inputs are used to create a discordant result, while the suppression of the original signals.

Slew Limiter
This can be used to create a smooth glide between notes. Also Smooth off voltage spikes.

The basic differences between digital and analog modular synthesizers

There are some specific differences between digital and analog modular synthesizers, but sometimes digital synthesizers often imitate the procedure of its analog counterpart.

While digital synthesizers can use a flexible number of instances of any standard module, but has an inadequate choice of the direction of audio and control signals. Rather, in the case of analog synthesizers is a very simple process of setting network cables.
